Obama’s tired “workers”

 
With all of Obama's talk about "workers", I can't help but think of the Daily Worker newspaper, the New York Times of its day.

"[I've] talked to workers who have seen their plants shipped overseas as a consequence of bad trade deals like NAFTA..."

"...we are cracking down on employers that are taking advantage of undocumented workers..."

"We have to require that undocumented workers..."

"....we want to also provide opportunity for the 12 million undocumented workers who are here..."

"....deal with the problem of this constant influx of undocumented workers..."

Note that Obama won’t mention illegal immigrants. Remember: they're "undocumented workers."
