WASHINGTON -- A largely unreported meeting held at the State Department discussed integration of the U.S., Mexico and Canada in concert with a move toward a transatlantic union, linking a North American community with the European Union.
The meeting was held Monday under the auspices of the Advisory Committee on International Economic Policy, or ACIEP. WND obtained press credentials and attended as an observer. The meeting was held under "Chatham House" rules that prohibit reporters from attributing specific comments to individual participants.
The State Department website noted the meeting was opened by Assistant Secretary of State for Economic, Energy and Business Affairs Daniel S. Sullivan and ACIEP Chairman Michael Gadbaw, vice president and senior counsel for General Electric's International Law & Policy group since December 1990.
WND observed about 25 ACIEP members, including U.S. corporations involved in international trade, prominent U.S. business trade groups, law firms involved with international business law, international investment firms and other international trade consultants.
No members of Congress attended the meeting.
The agenda for the ACIEP meeting was not published, and State Department officials in attendance could not give WND permission under Chatham House rules to publish the agenda.

Here's an update for you: don't dish it out if you can't take it. And don't whine about it when it happens to you after you do it.
Do those words ring a bell?
And no, I cannot link to those websites because they are forbidden on FR.
I understand your loyalties, I just don’t side with them. You are a big government cheerleader, and a globalist enabler.
As far as raging against the republicans, I could care less about them. It is *almost* a lost cause.
The funny part is that you are in complete denial if you think they are for small government and individual liberty. Which leads me to believe that you are either stupid or in denial.
You forget one possibility. You are a total idiot.
I’m not implying you’re a liar. Either you’ve forgotten what you’ve posted, or are running away from it.
So many comments..... wow.
Should we run down the list of reasons as to why you are a phony, or are you one of these new conservatives (moderate worms)? If that is the case, then go on with your little dream world.
I don’t know, newbie, why don’t you simply get started and we’ll go from there?
Personally would view adding all of the other states in the Americas into the United States as the option to pick over merging the NAFTA states and the EU. Latin America is much poorer, by and large, than EU states, but a country covering both continents in the Americas is more easily defensible than a country split by an ocean, especially when the more populous part (the EU) has a land border with Russia and Asia, and has Africa to the south; Muslims to the south and southeast.
In terms of illegal immigration alone, that is a pool of over 3 billion people who could theoretically walk across the border into THE NAFTA+EU Alliance. Militarily, Europe could soon be run over. Internally, Europe doesn't look so safe. As decline in pride in their countries among the citizenry combined with Muslim immigrants who refuse to assimilate doesn't bode all that great for Europe. Besides trying to keep the 'white' people together in a growing world with shifting geopolitics, unifying North America and Europe doesn't make much sense on several levels.
OK. Are you a McCain supporter?
No.
I posted 201 and 202. I was merely helping our globalist FRiend with some purple formatting on the post you replied to.
Sorry you were confused.
“That’s the argument the Democrats made about Dick Cheney’s energy policy meetings - that if the executive branch gets advice and they don’t publish that advice its a conspiracy.”
Dick Cheney’s meetings clearly dealt with American energy policy. Whether that should be conducted in private or in public was and remains a valid public policy issue. The same issues arose when Hillary Clinton felt compelled to try to nationalize health care.
The potential for public mis-understanding, the very real potential for compromise of American sovereignity for transnational corporate priorities and UN socialist imperatives, demands open, public meetings concerning these issues. Anything else , in this day and age, opens its participants to being labeled traitors. There is no room for a private agenda concerning these matters.
Again, this meeting was open to the press, whereas Cheney’s and Clinton’s were not.
It hasn't been a secret for years- ever since Quigley, in fact. There's nothing 'secret' about any of this, you can go to any local zoning meeting in Houston and see the NAU being shoved down the throats of America.
The problem is the average American is mesmerized by Britney Spears's tabloid crotch shots instead of what's being done by the control freaks right under their noses.
