Republicans gave us the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).

Bush signed it, but it took Clinton to get it through Congress.

What a lot of people don't want to admit, though: the process started under Reagan, who promoted the idea in his two election campaigns.

It’s quite a stretch to associate Reagan with the version of NAFTA that was finally adopted. I’m with Reagan on free trade, but NAFTA isn’t free trade and my bet is Reagan would have vetoed the bastardized version that was concocted.
