    If he is not “fingered” before the elections... he's fat and heavy so I guess his soul will go underground :P

    He's just trying to do what the union bosses tried in the UK towards the end of the last century.

    I won't dwell on that history because it was not auspicious and it split British society fundimentally.
    Sufficient to say, the union-formula for national government did not sit well in British society.

    But I see no signs that Argentia will refuse to adopt it.

    It will, of course, be the next 'Death' that befalls Argentina.

    #5 - What planet do you come from? Nobody should believe anything Moyano says.

    Is what he says in public what he wants in private?

    What might he want as well as the Presidency?

    A Workers Democracy? – No, because his proposals are anti-democratic, placing the Workers above the rest of the people.
    A Workers ‘communist state’?- Probably.

    Will he ditch CFK? – Certainly.

    How would a Workers ‘communist state’ sit with Mercosur? – Very badly, especially with Brasil.

    Which SA states would be his natural allies? – The confederation led by Venezuela and Cuba.

    What will the Argentina of 2020 look like eg 5 years after the creation of this Workers State? – Big & Isolated, trading as an isolated nation with a fractured economy and burgeoning inflation; whilst Mercosur evolves as an integrated Bloc dominated by Brasil, like Germany dominates Europe, and pulling the other partners along with it.

    I can hear it now . . . . “We had the chance to have it all but we took the wrong turn and all the money just sort of slipped away from us.”

    #6 I am sorry, an honest mistake, I didn't mean to say moyano was a good political leader or anything likr that, what I really ment to say was that I think Kristina would make a great second term president, if we look at everyone else in Argentina they are all liars and thieves, I would pin Cristina against any other Argentine political leader, soo if anyone intention is to shut me up I would advise them to have a reliable candidate, or to STFU.
