anyone know if any of the current crop of the presidential contenders has a voting record of being against, or at least made comments about being against NAFTA, FTAA, CAFTA, etc.?

    Only Kucinich but the mass media has totally blocked him out. I think it's sad how mass media now pretty much picks the candidates for the public, through there pundits.

      To answer my question:

      "Edwards, hoping to dent John Kerry's march to the Democratic nomination in Tuesday's primary, has made employment the focus of his campaign in Wisconsin, saying he opposes the North American Free Trade Agreement and other regional trade pacts that carry few or no protections for U.S. workers."

      "These trade agreements like NAFTA have just been devastating ... and you're seeing it up close," he said. "When I'm president of the United States, we're not going to have any more trade agreements like NAFTA."

        Yeah, I've been hearing that Edwards is now coming out against NAFTA. I think that is the reason Kucinich and Edwards did that thing where they gave each other there votes in Iowa to whoever had a chance of getting delegates. Cause I don't think either would have gotten any below 15% in a precinict
