Let me ask you some questions. What chance do you think we have that Congress and the President will pull us out of the U.N.? What about the WTO? What about NAFTA? What do you think our chances are of avoiding CAFTA-DR?
I'm sure your answers will mirror my own. There isn't chance that we'll withdraw from any of these. There's your answer.
For whatever reason, our federal officials are convinced that there's no business like 'global business', a loose term meant to convey their adoration of anything global.
The move to set up a 'federation' between Canada, Mexico and the U.S. is all but assured in my opinion. There is already a European Union. There is also an African Union.
NAFTA and CAFTA-DR are mearly the first steps to an American Union. The FTAA and the previously mentioned federation are the next steps. We're being sold out.
Unlike France and Denmark, we'll never get a vote on any of this. We didn't on NAFTA, when polls at the time showed 80% of the public was against it. 80%!
Personally, I don't think they'll have a problem at getting two-thirds in the Senate. I'd suggest it will be something like 90%.
It will be sold as a trade response to the E.U. We'll be told we have no choice of we want to remain competitive. Our leaders will be more than happy to jump into this with both feet.
That's the way I see it.

The part that won't get through the Senate is any attempt at open borders. Although, I do agree with PROSOUTH that our slow moving on closing the borders may, and I repeat MAY, have something to do with this plan.
As far as globalization, it is inevitable that will happen economically. It is not inevitable that it will happen politically in a way that will diminish our sovereignty. There may be federations and defense pacts and so on but we will not relinquish our sovereignty unless the Democrats take over again. We know how Slick loved executive orders so we must control the presidency at least.

Look at the amnesty bill our Senators were ready to vote on - without any thought to cost or implementation or that the majority of voters was against it. They'll stab us in the back without thinking twice.
