The Two Contending Visions of World Government<\/a><\/h3>\n

The Origin & Broader Context of Obama\u2019s \u2018Trade\u2019 Deals<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

U.S. President Barack Obama\u2019s proposed \u2018Trade\u2019 deals are actually about whether the world is heading toward a dictatorial world government \u2014 a dictatorship by\u00a0the hundred or so global super-rich who hold the controlling blocks of stock in the world\u2019s largest international corporations<\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u2014 or else toward a democratic world government, which will be a global federation of free and independent states, much like the United States was at its founding, but global in extent. These are two opposite visions of world government; and Obama is clearly on the side of fascism, an international mega-corporate dictatorship, as will be documented here in the links, and explained in the discussion.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also as a preliminary to the discussion here is the understanding that if Obama wins Fast Track Trade Promotion Authority, then all of his \u2018trade\u2019 deals will be approved by Congress, and that if he fails to receive this Authority, then none of them will.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFast Track,\u201d as will be explained in depth here, is, indeed, the \u201copen Sesame\u201d for Obama, on the entire matter. Without it, his deals don\u2019t stand even a chance of passage.<\/span><\/p>\n

I previously wrote about why it\u2019s the case that\u00a0\u201c\u2018Fast Track\u2019 Violates the U.S. Constitution.\u201d<\/span><\/a>\u00a0The details of the case are presented there; but, to summarize it here: \u201cFast Track Trade Promotion Authority,\u201d which was introduced by the imperial President Richard M. Nixon in the Trade Act of 1974, violates the U.S. Constitution\u2019s Treaty Clause \u2014 the clause that says \u201cThe President \u2026 shall have power, by and with the advice\u00a0and consent of the Senate, to make treaties,\u00a0provided two\u00a0thirds of the Senators present concur.<\/i>\u201d\u00a0(In other words:\u00a0otherwise<\/i>, the President\u00a0doesn\u2019t have<\/i>\u00a0that power<\/i>, the President cannot \u201cmake treaties.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
