On additional commitments to the world's poor:
NAFTA and the WTO which have been detrimental to the poor need to be eliminated. We need to push for the immediate cancellation of all bilateral debts of poor countries as well as cancellation of debts to the IMF and World Bank.
As President, America will do it's fair share of aid to impoverished nations of the world, clean up the air we breath and the water we drink, and strive for a sustainable peace. We are all connected, and need to live by the principal that 'We are our brother's keepers.'
