43. Not so fast....

You'll have to look far and wide to find anyone on this site who sees his entire Presidency as a disappointment. By far, our country is in a better place than either of the alternatives offered to us by the GOP. So tread lightly. I sense that at 5 whole posts you chime in on damning this President that you might not be here with helpful intentions. Most liberals and progressives are for fair trade deals. What we usually have problems with are free trade agreements, especially ones like NAFTA, CAFTA, TPP, etc.
