Translation:
In Latin America there is a crisis of leadership, which the ruling leaders are trying to hide. Several aspects must be touched on: The continuing elections of the same presidential candidate who has no limit for reelection, and who has the control of electoral institutions that are not independent and are subject to what the president says or rules, makes the country fall asleep and enter into a harmful conformism, which he argues enjoys a dubious popular power.Translation:
EXCELLENT POLITICAL VISIONTranslation:
Excellent article! The truth is that there are many efforts that human beings make to make everything go well. However, we never achieved it, because the human being is not able to direct his steps alone.

Interesting analysis on the democratic issue in the world and in its Colombian particularity. I am afraid that in our country, the elites belonging to the right of which the liberal and conservative parties have been part of in recent decades-I do not distinguish ideologically from any of the bipartisanship-will do the impossible to maintain the validity of their rance and rotten ideologies, who will not repair the use of violence as it has already been a national constant. As part of the concert of diffuse pluripartisanship, I do not see any light either, if we consider a series of "center" parties, which represent equally uninvolved characters of right-wing politicians, whether they be Christian churches-what a danger to democracy greater than this, or others camouflaged by style. A stigmatized and divided left and a more broken Colombia every day. How can we trust the votes with incredible corruption and insanity? Colonialist education that continues in its proselytism in every school or an ignorance for lack of adequate education to increase and support churches and parties in power.|
