Al Gore and Ross Perot debate NAFTA in 1993

submitted by jwray

1 decade 5 years 11 months ago

It's interesting go back and listen to what politicians said back then and see if things actually turned out like they said it would.

The announcer frames the debate as if the impact of it on Americans is the only thing that matters and then Perot talks about the welfare of Mexicans.

Haven't watched it yet but have to admit, intro animations sure got a lot more seizure-inducing in those 15 years ...

"It's a choice between the politics of fear and the politics of hope" - now where have I heard that before.

Watched it in full, very nice sift.

I switched out the embed to a new playlist, and it said no changes detected, but it works now so I guess it took the change anyway.
