THE LIE:
John Kerry is good for keeping jobs in America.
Wrong!
By Robert Colaco, the Volunteer National
Chairman,
Founder of Citizens For A Better America ® with the
acronym and website of CFABA.ORG!
As America celebrates another Labor Day holiday
we have been hearing a great deal from Presidential
Candidate John Kerry about how he is good for
organized labor and keeping jobs in America.
I am disappointed to have to tell Americans that
U.S.
Senator John Kerry's record during his service in the
United States Senate from 1984 to current just does not
reflect his current statements to America about
exporting jobs, to such places as Mexico.
It is with all due respect that I write this
Commentary
to the office of U.S. Senator that John Kerry holds, as
well as Presidential Candidate. It is not my goal to
be rude or unkind in my remarks. It is my goal to
clearly express his voting record versus what he is
saying now about the issue of jobs, and organized
labor.
I founded Citizens For A Better America ®
(CFABA.ORG)
on October 15, 1992. Sadly immediately after the
inauguration of President Bill Clinton on January 20,
1993 he started to push through an agenda of passing
the North American Free Trade Agreement, also known as
NAFTA.
We at CFABA.ORG have made what some candidates
have
called "a very big deal," of NAFTA. I have written
against NAFTA. We published a flyer for the November
1993 local and city elections with an article about how
NAFTA would be bad to the United States of America,
USA.
We have included the issue of NAFTA as one of
the
questions on our "CFABA.ORG Candidate
Questionnaire," ™. In fact to the shock and horror
of many Republican candidates that have not received
our endorsement, the NAFTA question has the same value
as our opposition to homosexual marriage and all other
questions, which you can see by clicking on the (07.)
at the end of this Commentary.
We have heard a great deal of criticism from
Presidential Candidate John Kerry about President
George W. Bush being responsible for loosing jobs in
America. I have some questions that I believe
all Americans should ask of U.S. Senator John Kerry.
Q1. Senator Kerry, where were you when U.S. jobs
were
on the line, during the NAFTA debate and battle in
Congress?
Q2. Senator Kerry, why did you vote for NAFTA?
Q3. Senator Kerry, when the going was tough
during the
NAFTA battle in 1993, why did you not take the same
stand as your former Democrat opponent Congressman Dick
Gephardt and vote against NAFTA?
To make it easy for Americans to email Senator
Kerry
please copy and paste the above questions in your email
to Senator Kerry. You can email him by clicking on the
following link: [MailTo:Info@JohnKerry.com]*.
I would appreciate all those sending a letter to
also
include a CC or Carbon Copy to me as well when they
send their notes and letter to the Info@JohnKerry.com!
All they need to do is add HQ@CFABA.ORG to their email
or click on the following link: [MailTo:HQ@CFABA.ORG].
Just for the record Presidential Campaigns of
John Kerry
and George W. Bush would be receiving this email because
they are on our Commentary and News Release List ™.
I, Robert Colaco have been passionate against
NAFTA
since 1993. I have been passionate about protecting
U.S. jobs, protecting U.S. Sovereignty from trinational
commissions being formed to oversee the implementation
of NAFTA and overrule U.S. Federal as well as State,
County and City laws since my run for Congress starting in
November 1988.
It is easy to talk the talk but much of the time
it is not easy to walk the walk when you are an elected
representative of the people of the USA, as John Kerry
has been since 1984. When Americans elect higher
ranking officials like those being elected to the
United States Senate or the Governorship of a large
state we expect more from those candidates.
It is easy for Presidential Candidate John Kerry
to
tell Americans, especially those loosing their jobs
that he is with them and he supports their cause. But,
was he with them when NAFTA was going through the U.S.
House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate? NO, HE
WAS NOT!
We as Americans are being told that Organized
Labor and
the Unions are for Democrat candidates like John Kerry.
We as a very small, nonconnected, independent,
political committee registered with the Federal
Election Commission as an unauthorized, nonconnected
committee put our money, reputation, where our mouth
was. We are not a 527 group that receives soft money. We
must report all funds over $200 received to the FEC.
We have told candidates that if they support
NAFTA,
then we will not endorse them. We have taken a great
deal of grief and heat for that position. However, we
believed in 1993 and we believe now in 2004 that it is
the right decision for America.
Labor Unions and Organized Labor should have
forced the
Democrat Party to nominate Congressman Dick Gephardt.
He stood with Labor Unions and Organized Labor on the
issue of NAFTA.
I believe that when a candidate does what
Presidential
Candidate John Kerry has done by voting in support of
an agreement like NAFTA and then coming back to those
that it harmed, workers in America, and asking for
their vote and support, they should just say NO. They
should say: Vote No On John Kerry!
That is one of the reasons that Citizens For A
Better
America ® (CFABA.ORG) has registered the internet
address or domain of VoteNoOnJohnKerry.com! Although
this website is not yet active on the internet,
CFABA.ORG has take the first steps to make it so. As
soon as we have the funding to put that internet
address or domain of VoteNoOnJohnKerry.com we will be
sending out a News Release announcing it.
In keeping with that goal, any individual
contributing
sixty dollars or more through our website by 11:59 PM
(Eastern Time) on Monday, 09/06/2004, Labor Day will
receive an autographed copy of the "HAVE YOU BEEN LIED
TO?" ™ flyer by snail mail or regular postal mail.
That same flyer I, and my lovely wife delivered to
the U.S. Congress in Washington, DC before their vote
on the NAFTA agreement in November 1993. This flyer is not
on any of our websites because it was before we were on the
internet.
That "HAVE YOU BEEN LIED TO?" ™ flyer with the
article against NAFTA was delivered to members of
Congress at great personal hardship. This is an
opportunity for you to show your friends that John
Kerry was not with them when he voted to authorize the
NAFTA agreement.
Just for the record, since we have thousands of
candidates from all political parties including
Democrats, and we have News Media professionals on our
"Commentary and News Release List," ™, most
of whom have indicated in polls that they are
supporters of John Kerry, candidates and officeholders
are responsible for their votes, during the time they
make them. They are responsible for the damage those
votes have on their constituents, in this case the
American people.
In my thinking there is no excuse for those that
voted
for NAFTA.
John Kerry Voted For the North American Free
Trade
Agreement, also known as NAFTA. (H.R. 3450, CQ Vote
#395. It Passed 61-38: There were 34 Republicans that
voted for it and 10 that voted against it. There were
27 Democrats that voted for it, including John Kerry,
and 28 that voted against it on November 20, 1993
(11/20/1993).
To show the American People that we mean what we
say
about our opposition to the NAFTA agreement, below are
some of the Commentaries and News Releases where we
have discussed NAFTA as an issue.
