America's enemy within
Armed checkpoints, embedded reporters in flak jackets, brutal
suppression of peaceful demonstrators. Baghdad? No, Miami

In December 1990, President George Bush Sr travelled through South
America to sell the continent on a bold new dream: "A free trade
system that links all of the Americas." Addressing the Argentine
Congress, he said that the plan, later to be named the Free Trade Area
of the Americas, would be "our hemisphere's new declaration of
interdependence the brilliant new dawn of a splendid new world."
Last week, Bush's two sons joined forces to try to usher in that new
world by holding the FTAA negotiations in Florida. This is the state
that Governor Jeb Bush vowed to "deliver" to his brother during the
2000 presidential elections, even if that meant keeping many
African-Americans from exercising their right to vote. Now Jeb was
vowing to hand his brother the coveted trade deal, even if that meant
keeping thousands from exercising their right to protest.
