Note: Obama has not retreated on NAFTA

Fact Check on Fortune Article Claim that Obama believes ''NAFTA not so bad after all''

I keep seeing this point posted here. Where did it come from, Fortune?

1. Yeah, it came from Fortune.

I posted the other day that Obama has not changed his mind on NAFTA. His position has always been the same. Of course there will always be people who are just looking for anything to jump all over Obama.

8. nothing.

in my eyes, he has always been very centrist, especially on economic issues. I'll still vote for him, but that doesn't mean I have to like anything less than a total scrapping of NAFTA. I will not stop writing his campaign asking for some real progressives on board for an ethical platform on economy and globalization.

Nice try though, you're the third in the last hour who tried to bait me into the flip-flop game.

7. Obama has retreated on FISA, NAFTA and is kissing AIPAC.

Where is the change Obama promised?
