The separation of powers demands that Congress play its full constitutional role in such agreements and that includes its ability to amend and reconstruct them in a manner that reflects the will of Congress and the people it represents, and not just the will of the President and the leaders of foreign nations. That means there must be consideration by Congress of a number of alternatives to the proposed agreement and not just a consideration of acceptance or rejection of the President’s formulation. So, to restore traditional constitutional governance in the area of negotiating Congressional – Executive Agreements, breached most notably in the case of NAFTA and so-called “free trade” agreements since then, Fast Track must be defeated and forbidden by Congress from future consideration through establishing new Congressional rules prohibiting representatives from introducing such proposals.

For Obama ad-Dajjal to support fast tracking of TPP and TTIP suggests that at least one of the following is true about him:
- He's a complete moron, and/or
- He doesn't know a damn thing about the US Constitution, and/or
- He's the biggest traitor since Benedict Arnold.
If this thing is passed, the USA which was established by our Constitution will cease to exist.
And that's a fact, Jack.
