confusing NAFTA with NAAEC*.

NAAEC was one of the supplemental agreements to NAFTA that preceded Congressional approval of NAFTA. Nice foot shot.

I'm fairly positive that NAFTA (that Ronald Reagan initiated

Bzzzzt. Wrong.

Ronald Reagan proposed a North American common market in 1981. He never created the NAFTA agreement. He never signed the NAFTA agreement. He never negotiated the NAFTA agreement.

President Bush first notified Congress of his intention to negotiate with Mexico for the creation of a NAFTA agreement in 1990, after President Ronald Reagan left office. The first diplomatic negotiations to create NAFTA didn't even begin until 1991. The bill implementing NAFTA wasn't passed by Congress until it was modified by multiple supplemental agreements. NAFTA, praised by your fellow leftists as "the greenest trade agreement ever" was signed into law by Bill Clinton on December 8, 1993 and became effective January 1, 1994.

Try again.
