Barack Obama actually said...

"I would only sign an agreement and present an agreement to Congress if I could be absolutely certain that it was good for American workers and good for American businesses."

"What we can't do is think that somehow, if we draw a moat around this country, that we're going to be able to avoid globalization and technology."

"Keep in mind Kai that we started this five years ago, with the basic proposition that the Asia-Pacific region is the most populous, fastest-growing region in the world."

"This agreement has the strongest labor standards of any trade agreement in history."
