    Unilateralism is something no future President can reverse. The reason is simple: we don't control the game board any more...we're one of many players.

    when NAFTA was enacted,the progressives complained that the US was killing the Latin American farmers by dumping cheap american corn on their countries.Now that corn's price has risen, the progressives complain that the high price of corn is killing the Latin American peasants!You can't win!
    The problem with free trade is that it's not really free.Why isn't ethanol from Brazil coming to the US?Why can't I buy a bag of Costa Rica macadamias or prescription drugs from Canada?Why are there barriers to US exports in places which sell to us freely?Let's have more freedom both ways!

    George, george...please! Free tree won't impact the economy in any shape, form, or manner other than marginally. Until of course, THE FARM BILL IS FASHIONED AWAY FROM A MILLIONARIE FARM MAKER. 'Every since you admitted global warming is taking place but it will be good for the world', you become a hollow sham. Stop attacking democrats and start analyzing problems again.
