Several Observations:

First, the exceptionally qualified Nancy Pelosi says she is looking for a path to vote for the Trade Promotion Authority.  With the above off-the-charts stock market price growth of the key California Technology and Health Care Companies, coupled with the success of Ron Wyden, Sherrod Brown and Elizabeth Warren in also making this Fast-Track Trade deal Much Fairer to the Middle and Lower US economic classes, I think Nancy Pelosi now has this clear path.  And many of the very bright, accomplished California Democratic House members will follow her lead here.

Second, US High Technology and Biotechnology Companies have done a much better job of making the US secure than has the US Military Brass, the CIA and the NSA.  This Trade Promotion Authority will only add substantially to these key US Technology Companies success in making the US even more secure.

And third, it is time for some of the key leaders of US Technology to run for 2016 US President.  Your leadership and visionary wisdom is needed to turn the US Government into a world-class institution the way you have done in leading your world-class US Technology Organizations.
