George H.W. Bush: “I see what you--I think you're making a good case for protection, and I think protection is just 180 degrees wrong. What…”

“I see what you--I think you're making a good case for protection, and I think protection is just 180 degrees wrong. What I think we need to do is expand markets. We're in a global economy.

You're moving product out of here. So we just have a difference in philosophy. Mr. Smith. It's also a question State, and we have a lot of them for you. [Laughter]”
