My eyes are crossing from reading [View all]

From what I get out of articles I read or scanned is that the "main driver" of the TPP Agreement is Hillary Clinton and was studied and favored by the Bush Administration.

The details are too difficult for me to understand, but I have to think about this in past experience...NAFTA is one for the Clinton's, and Iraq is one for the Bushes.

Just going by the architects who favor the TPP Agreement is enough for me to be vewee vewee leewy of it. (Bugs Bunny or Elmer Fudd)

Those who paradoxically favor Hillary Clinton for president who do not approve of the TPP must feel very conflicted, or they are ignorant of her high approval.

Put TPP in a search engine, and Clinton and Bush will appear in every article. That 's enough for me to suspect its benefit to the US, notwithstanding the lists provided by other DUers whose knowledge of the TPP far exceeds mine by galaxies.
