    NAFTA, CAFTA and the Trans Pacific Partnership are complex, economic agreements. Even economists disagree about who wins and who loses, so it's a challenge for voters to know which candidate is right or wrong. We rebroadcast Warren Olney's conversation about “free trade” and political trade-offs.
