2010 North American Union or just a 'security and prosperity partnership'?!

Below are three reports by CNN's Lou Dobbs on the behind-the-scenes work being done to create a North American Union, reminiscent of the E.U., by 2010. I don't know how they're going to pull this off given the disparity of wages with Mexican labour, but, whatever this nascent union grows into should be interesting and worth watching more closely.

The American government maintains (www.spp.gov) that this is just a 'Security and Prosperity Partnership' designed to 'to increase security and to enhance prosperity among the three countries through greater cooperation'.

Here's an interesting timeline (at another site, which opposes the union) of related events covering much of the 20th century leading to the SPP/NAU. TIMELINE

Sorry, I don't know how to embed the video.

1. CNN Lou Dobbs via youtube.com

2. Here's another Lou Dobbs report, via Google Video.


3. Yet another one, via youtube.com

There are several other related clips listed on both sites (youtube / google vieo) after you finish watching. It's disappointing that there isn't much else in the main stream media about this important event at the moment. A google search will get you started on your way, just remember to stay on the yellow brick road...

We're not in Kansas anymore.
