first native indian to be president of a south american
country (Bolivia). Finally someone REALLY socialist at least
on the paper... What do you think about it ? U think he will
succeed in giving back bolivian gaz to its people and
protect coca cultivators ?

seems to be a pipe dream, giving back to the people and coca
cultivators going un-fucked-with would be a pretty sizable
feet...

yep I know it wont be all white nor black, but still makes
me happy (coz I love Bolivia and bolivian people). Of course
america will keep his nasty capitalist eyes on it, but Im
actually full of childish hopes about this !

Kill me

yeah for sure...south america has had some rough times (to
be brutally simplistic) - and if there werent so many
monetary rewards for the US we wouldnt touch it (what would
we touch if we didnt want money?)

I think it's an incredible event, and can't quite believe
it's actually happened.

This is an interesting article written before the
election but makes for an interesting read.

South America has become a very progressive place
politically
with the worker groups of Argentina, Hugo Chavez of
Venezuela
and the World Social Forum in Brazil.

Viva La Revolucion!

This is great news for all those who oppose neo-liberalism.
I'm not sure how much Morales can get done (look at Lula in
Brazil - though this guy is more the 'real thing'), but its
a sign that the people of Latin America don't want to go
down the road of advanced capitalism.

I wonder how long the US can keep its hands to itself. I
think imperial overstretch is the only thing saving Chavez's
arse.

This "Revolucion" and these populist movements have been
going for decades. It's just the US keeps crushing them.

I doubt this will be an exception. Bush already voiced his
opposition and "concern" about Morales' plans for Bolivian
natural resources and coca plantation-workers.
