once, twice... a new tendency?(about Bolivia this time)

Post by Arcadia » August 11th, 2008, 1:16 pm

so... if you´re not right-wing you have to win the general elections with less material recursos plus two years or so later re-win again in a plesbicito to continue being president and maybe be able to walk freely in the country? Democracy... you´re a bicho raro! :shock: :roll:

Nevertheless I´m very happy Evo touched the 63%!!!!!!!!!!! :D

I was happy to see him win too.
That made my local paper also.
But they said that his opponents won too so it is still a stand off.

Sorry I was not able to translate the webpage. Something wrong with Babel Fish.

dave: no idea of what are you meaning with "still about". He was killed there by the bolivian army & the CIA in The Higuera in 1967. If you are talking about his memory still alive in some bolivian citizens (Evo included) maybe yes...! thanks for reading!!!!! :)

s-trucking: some of the governors? (not sure if they call it that way..) of the secesionist states will be a pain in the ass for Evo. I think the right wing somehow win instalando the plesbicito proccess. It´s interesting to re-think the idea of Estados (& the big ammount of critics and intent of destroying them during the liberal nineties while in the central countries were and still are so strong) from what is happening in Bolivia and other latinamerican countries. Thanks for reading too!!!! :)

Should I believe my government? Would they lie to me? They say the USA has nothing to with the violent protests.

They say trust us, we are the good guys.

It is like Iran and Mossadeq all over again.




It is up to me?
Then I think I will tell my ambassodor to come home and quit meddling in the affairs of another country.

I was raised on John Wayne movies, truth, justice and the american way
Please don't take that away from me.
Make me an angel that flies from montgom'ry
Make me a poster of an old rodeo
Just give me one thing that I can hold on to
To believe in this living is just a hard way to go
