Now for the GOP field. Same deal.

Brownback – 0% fair trade voting record (0/10 votes). Wrong on NAFTA for Africa (twice), on China PNTR, Fast Track 2002 (once), NAFTA expansions to Chile, Singapore, Australia, Central America, and Oman. Didn’t vote for Fast Track 2002 (once).
Thompson – 0% fair trade voting record (0/5 votes). Wrong on NAFTA for Africa (twice), Fast Track 2002 (twice), and China PNTR.
McCain – 6% fair trade voting record (1/16 votes). McCain voted right on Fast Track 1988; wrong on everything else (Canada FTA, Fast Track disapproval, Fast Track 1993 and 2002 (twice), NAFTA, WTO, NAFTA for Africa (once), Chile, Singapore, Australia, Central America, Oman, and China PNTR). Didn’t vote on NAFTA for Africa (once).
Tancredo – 47% fair trade voting record (7/15 votes). He voted right on China PNTR, WTO withdrawal (twice), and NAFTA expansions to Chile, Singapore, Central America, and Oman. Voted wrong on Fast Track 1998, NAFTA for Africa (twice), wrong on Fast Track 2001-02 (twice), and NAFTA expansions to Australia and Bahrain.
Hunter – 71% fair trade voting record (17/24 votes right). He voted wrong on Fast Track 1984 (twice), the Israel FTA, Fast Track 2001, and the Australia, Bahrain and Oman FTAs. He was right on Canada FTA, Fast Track 1988, Fast Track disapproval, Fast Track 1993, NAFTA, WTO, Fast Track 1998, NAFTA for Africa (twice), China PNTR, WTO withdrawal (twice), Fast Track 2002, NAFTA expansions to Chile, Singapore, Morocco and Central America.
Paul – 83% fair trade voting record (15/18 votes right). Like Kucinich, he didn’t show for the Morocco FTA, and he appears to have voted wrong on Fast Track 1984 (twice). But see note below. Everything else was right (Fast Track 1979, 1998, 2001, 2002, NAFTA for Africa (twice), Chile, Singapore, Australia, Central America, Bahrain, Oman, and China PNTR, and WTO withdrawal (twice).)
