Clinton can even count on such Republican NAFTA supporters as Henry Kissinger and James Baker, as well as multimedia star Rush Limbaugh. The President showed off some of NAFTA's big-name boosters at what was supposed to be a White House media event last Wednesday; so far as the public noticed, he might just...
