It really comes down to one fact: The antiNAFTA coalition is led by a rogues gallery of demagogs. In fact. they are a veritable allstar roster of mythmakers. From Ross Perot to Pat Buchanan. from Jerry Brown to Ralph Nader and Jesse Jackson. the men on this allstar roster share one trait: they are all long on name recognition. but notably short on credibility. . Nativism. scaretactics. and xenophobia are not sufficient reasons to vote against NAFTA. The mythmakers need to confront the facts: NAFTA will create jobs. improve the environment. help American relations with our neighbors. and expand markets. Resist the mythmakers.
