Funny how you chose to leave Clinton's involvement out of the whole
process.
Though Clinton signed it into law, NAFTA was primarily negotiated by
Republicans. Republicans passed it for Clinton to sign. Bush and Reagan were
responsible for over 95% of the negotiations that went into NAFTA. Republicans
have always been the biggest supporters of free trade agreements because they

Clinton was behind NAFTA 100%...
