In Obama’s World, China’s in NAFTA, and the BRIC Counties Speak Spanish

In a world where the rising economic powers are referred to by the acronym BRIC [Brazil, Russia, India and China], Obama urges you to make sure your children speak Spanish in order to get jobs in “international business.”

[I know what you’re thinking, and no, Brazilians speak Portuguese.]

Then again, during a Democratic debate, he said, “I talked to workers who have seen their plants shipped overseas as a consequence of bad trade deals like NAFTA, literally seeing equipment unbolted from the floors of factories and shipped to China.”

Apparently our children must speak Spanish so they can explain to the Chinese why we’re withdrawing from NAFTA.
