The Obama Campaign held a conference call discussing Senator Hillary Clinton’s allegedly changing views on NAFTA. Obama Communications Director Robert Gibbs discussed how the papers released yesterday examining Clinton’s time as First Lady confirm that she was a proponent of NAFTA but now will not admit to her backing of the trade- agreement.
Such “double talk,” Gibbs explained, is not what the American people should hear from a President. The Obama Campaign portrayed him as the clearly more reliable, truthful candidate, saying he has “always been straight” with the American people.
Gibbs said whether voters support or oppose NAFTA they should always support a truthful candidate like Obama, not one who disguises viewpoints, like Clinton.
Also discussed during the call was the Michigan and Florida primary controversy. The Obama Campaign said the Senator would support a “reasonable resolution” proposed.
