What's the point about renegotiating NAFTA with Canada and Mexico?
Isn't it the corporations that are the problem?

They were the ones that closed up shop and left the country. Why not "Renegotiate" with them? As in, you want to sell your sweatshop junk in the US, It's going to cost you.

1. Ditch NAFTA ditch NCLB ditch the Iraq War ditch the Patriot Act
scrap homeland security. There may be no do-overs as president (except for Bush who got three stunningn ooops so far on his watch) but there can be start-overs, and that is exactly what the next president has to to do.

2. We set the rules, the corporations play by them.
If we enforce them, that is.
