A movement has resurfaced in Argentina with the idea of promoting the perpetuation of President Cristina Fernandez in power through a constitutional reform, an initiative launched before but which at that time was downplayed by the re-elected president. Read full article

Apr 30th, 2012 - 08:27 am - Link - Report abuse 0“your country slides down the toilet bowl” ??? what do you mean? It IS in the toilet right now, and KFC has her hand on the “Flush”
The country is so f**ked!! the crowd love her and cheer her on as she steals from them and runs their country into the ground.
Why do they even bother debating this? She completely ignored the constitution when she stole YPF, making the constitution worthless, and now she's bothering to get the constitution changed.
Apr 30th, 2012 - 10:01 am - Link - Report abuse 0This Dictatorship needs to come to terms with the fact it's a KFC-based dictatorship. I guess the residents are a bit slower than normal folk.
It's funny how the Argentine constitution is considered a sacred document on some matters and yet a flexible inconvienience too when it suits whoever is president.
Apr 30th, 2012 - 11:19 am - Link - Report abuse 0What is hilarious is they think they are a democracy and more functional and “fair” than the USA.
Apr 30th, 2012 - 11:42 am - Link - Report abuse 0I can not for the life of me understand why they don't see the comparisons to Hitler. It is fascinating!
Over the weekend I posted the definition of fascism and asked Guzzy Wuzzy to point out where it differs from CFK actions and all he came back with was that she was elected. Well...so was Hitler, and everything he did was “legal” because he made it legal, passed it through “the house” and lo and behold it is law. When you control both houses and the courts everything becomes “legal”.
Scary stuff....
@6 I have my issues about the link between advertising money and election results in the USA, but that aside it's delivers a highly effective, transparent and strong system of governance. This is the same for the westminster system, that with a similar bag of quirks and questions, it delivers a very effective and fair response to what voters want.
Apr 30th, 2012 - 12:42 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Openly paying people to vote out of government coffers, in a festival of electoral fraud, combined with complete disrespect for the constitution, ignoring bilateral treaties and generally running the country into oblivion, overseen by a 'family dictatorship'... that's in no way fairer than the aforementioned systems.
The comparisons to Hitler's activities are clear.
In the next election..we are going to do a Serbian origin President for Argentina...
Apr 30th, 2012 - 01:54 pm - Link - Report abuse 0If there were be any real Argentine commentators here ,they would know his name.!
Well the only person who is going to be standing in the next presidential election, by presidential decree, is KFC.
Apr 30th, 2012 - 01:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Everything the two leaders quoted here sounds not only correct but considered and part of a wider democratic debate. I particularly liked “We need to change the focus of the current constitution, which is based on a liberal-conservative matrix“ and ”Landau said he was in favour of “anything that questions the status quo“”, as it seems theres a possibility now that the democratic progressive process and challenge to neoliberalism may now deepen, perhaps even leading to a refounding of the state as has happened in Venezuela, Bolivia etc. The only thing that worried me is Cristina's seeming reluctance to go on ruling; I know it must be tough for her at the top, shouldering such great responsibilities, yet she has shown herself strong and capable and the people, including people of the world like me, are always with her to give her the support and love she deserves, so I hope she does reconsider as she really is ”an undisputed leader above the political establishment”

Do you think, for her own sake, that she should carry on with all the stress she has, albeit most of it caused by herself?
If she does carry on she risks a complete mental breakdown.

Same political ideology, same love of cream buns.
#12 She's had a lot to deal with, from widowhood to cance scares to the attacks of the right wing sectors you militantly support, and has pulled through; if she was really mentally incapable that wouldn't have happened, so whatever she's “admitted” to must be no more than a sharp temper, which has its advantages I suppose when your a dominant woman in government (if you think I'm coming over all creepy there, what do you think of Maggie Thatcher's style???!!!) My hope is that once the fine tuning and the naionalisation bears fruit, it will be plainer sailing for her; while her own continuing presence in charge will help guarantee the continuation of the leftist model
Apr 30th, 2012 - 02:59 pm - Link - Report abuse 0I hope that the people who eventually make up the Constitutional Convention really have the good of the country at heart when they start playing with our Constitution.
Apr 30th, 2012 - 03:22 pm - Link - Report abuse 01) Definetly no re-reelection. It is the first step to tyranny.
2) Removal of the article which mentions the sovreignty of the “Malvinas”.
3) Redefinition of the form of electing Federal Judges so that they are truly independent.
These would be the first few reforms that might be acceptable.
14. Oh my god! your a funny person :) “while her own continuing presence in charge will help guarantee the continuation of the leftist model” you much be a blind leftie student with talk like that! (don't get me wrong i was one once) :p

He considers himself a patriot but does no the recognise the Queen and is fiaxted on the plastic doll aka CFK, aka Old Turkey Neck, or as I refer to her now: The Mad Bitch.
Is it really a 'leftist' model?

Ah yes...the cancer scare. Interesting that you bring that up. What kind of advice from doctors was she getting? Surley she didn't milk it for all it was worth and therefore get a sympathy vote?

But as she is mega rich, does it really matter,
Except for her obsession, she is of little interest outside of Argentina,
But to be fair to B.K .

We admire your honesty, no matter how ambiguous it may be,
But out of interest
We feel you would be left with limited places to lice, in peace,
1, can she come to Scotland-
2, can you go to Argentina.
3, will she go to Peru or Venezuela
4, will you go to Peru or Venezuela
5, would you be very popular on here
6, would care
7 can we get back to reality now .lol
@30 I know you're trying to be funny, but the fact she doesn't care about the constitution, thereby making the constitution completely useless is not something you can project onto other people, trying and failing to add wit.
Apr 30th, 2012 - 08:09 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@30. You said it Guzz: Democrazy - that's what it is in Argentina.

To all: To explain the rantings of the mentally challenged “Guzz” character is impossible, and although he falsely claims to be Uruguayan, the sad conclusion is that he’s a single male, of mixed-nationality, most likely between 18 and 25 years of age, underemployed, most likely still living with his mother in Europe. Exhibits a non-completed mediocre education with English as his primary language. An extremely self-centered narcissist, who craves attention and acknowledgement from others. He has trouble empathizing with superiors or understanding their positions. He’s apparently extremely sensitive to rejection - implied, perceived or real from others and may react with displays of aggression, threats or temper tantrums when denied. He claims being a “marine engineer” that commutes between Denmark and Uruguay, but the conclusion is its nothing more than another manifestation of his delusions of grandeur.

Yes. All this talk about love is funny (and your side started it) but the point is we don't agree about politics. As far as I can see the divide is basically that you support the policies that caused the great recession in the developed world, and the 2001 crash in Argentina, and I support Cristina's resistance to them

Seems to me that CFK has an Evita obsession and has realised that gaining sovereignty of the Falklands is the only sure fire way to elevate herself into the hearts of Argentines to the same level.

As juapell says, as long as Kretina has the printing machine and can keep a large majority of the people poor enough to take their few pence per vote the peronist nightmare will go on.
May 01st, 2012 - 04:08 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Also if we were lucky enough to find an opposition politico honest and brave enough to really stand up to the K machine this would make it impossible to govern through the unions just as happened to Alfonsin, Illia, and De la Rua.
Justicialist Party May Day Celebrated
May 01st, 2012 - 05:40 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Buenos Aires, May 1 (Buenos Aires Herald) -- The dear respected Maximo Fernández made a congratulatory speech at the Justicialist Party parade celebrating the brave workers of Argentina on the May Day holiday. His speech has enjoyed great public response as it was vibrant with superb intelligence and iron will and gives clear-cut answers to questions arising in building a thriving nation.
In particular, his statement that “Our party and the government of the Justicialist Party will join hands with anyone who sincerely wishes the reunification of the country and peace and prosperity of the nation, and make responsible and persevering efforts to realize the historic cause of national reunification with our brothers held captive in the Malvinas Islands” instills in the minds of all Argentinians the conviction of sure victory in national reunification with them.
Maximo Fernández was evidently making a reminder of the tireless work of his mother, Dear Leader, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, who has called for national unity before anything else and led all patriotic-minded Argentinians to the efforts for national reunification with the Islas Malvinas.
This statement also made people recall the bold and fearless leadership, of his father, the late Great Leader President Néstor Kirchner as well who declared that Argentina would join hands under the banner of great national unity with government authorities or ruling and opposition party officials, politicians and Argentine workers, if they value the common interests of the nation and want national reunification with the illegally held rightful territory of Argentina.
The idea of on great national unity and their lofty personalities and patriotism of Presidents Cristina Fernández and the great leader President Néstor Kirchner, have served as a source of strength enabling all Argentinians to turn out in the drive for national unity and reunification.
My country needs to hit bottom in order to get better.
May 01st, 2012 - 09:06 pm - Link - Report abuse 0No it didn't yet.
Thanks to this project of National Unity idea of these great leaders and the organizations behind it will surely reach this goal.
