    I was informed just a few days ago on this site that the percentage of Italians in Argentina was minor and they did not have a significant influence over the country there. Yet we have the dominant political party with Italian president and VP candidates again the opposition Italian presidential candidates.

    The mix of Italians predominately from the south with the Spaniards and mestizos in Argentina created a their infamous “Viveza criolla” mentality. Chile and Uruguay have some similar traits, but fortunately far less.

    He was backstabbed by the CFK and Zannini who has his office right next to his. He must of really thought he coud be president. Now he has a wounded ego... It wont last long as he will be booted from Kirchnerism and will have to work. He cant challenge a thing.

    Animal Fernandez has 70% of disapproval rate in Pcia BsAs.

    There are a lot of opinion pieces out there now saying that no matter who takes over as Prez they're going to have an economic disaster on their hands.

    Frankly I hope another K takes over so they can be the Maduro of Argentina.

    Maybe they can put a bird in the Cabinet.

    Crazy weirdos.

    She is making the decisions on who will be the next president of the nation. She will be running things after the election. The elected president will be president in name only. What bloody farce. Wake up Argentina. This is not a democracy. I always thought the people were the ones who decided who will be president.

    I hope that the K-swine/perronista dogs own this next regime.

    Dear CD2:

    By continuing to spout these voluminous amounts of nonsense you remove any doubt as to your ignorance.

    5. If she doesn't keep control her, her minions and disgusting spawn will all end up rotting in prison where they belong.

    There is no free choice in Argentina.
    Haven't you realized that by now?

    It will all depend if Scioli-Zannini will get over 40% in the next PASO. If he does he is the next president, if not its Macri. Only a month away.

    But if the Socialists can fraud a election in Santa Fe and srew PRO you can only expect double that in BsAs province.

    “This is not a democracy. I always thought the people were the ones who decided who will be president.”
    Relax, mendocino. This is just the selection of candidates within the FpV.
    Don't you know that, once all the presidential candidates are in place, an election will take place?
    In any event, CD paves the way to say, if a candidate he dislikes wins, that it was because of fraud.
    If his candidate wins, CD will never remember what he wrote today.

    10.

    And I remember the days -not so long ago-that your and Thinks candidate was Axel Chikitoff.

    Think also talked about Justin Binner next president.

    BTW Macri has decided to choose Michetti as his VP. I dont think much of her personally as I distrust women politicians in general and her greed has made her act very stupidly, but she will take a lot of young votes as well as female votes out of CABA. Weel chair effect, they say.... like “no-cancer” and the widow in black that was beddazled Boudou in 2011.

    I think Macri's /Duran Barba's move is check mate.

    Buenos Aires, Casa Rosada
    Presidente de la Nación Argentina
    Dra. Cristina Fernández de Kirchner
    (English Translation)

    Relations between the Argentina Nation and the United Kingdom are being pushed to the worst catastrophe as the days go by due to vicious smear campaign being conducted through the imperialist media consisting of a litany of malignant lies being currently parroted my the illegal puppet so called “Acting Governor” Sandra Tyler-Haywood of the illegally held Islas Malvinas.

    Outrageous false claims of Argentina is conducting some sort of disruption and blockade of the Malvinas illegal inhabitants as well as being rightful subjects of Argentina testifies to the promotion of unwanted confrontation to hinder the eventual repatriation of the Malvinas to its rightful motherland.

    The British imperial imaginary claims are getting disintegrated beyond control and hit hard from all sides for its political crisis and subsequent social catastrophe and confusion.

    It is vexed with the daily increasing political might of Argentina, the might of single-minded unity of international relations growing stronger as the days go by.
    The group of traitors is busy conducting the above-said false propaganda in a bid to divert elsewhere the people and the world public's bitter criticism of it.

    In the grip of extreme fear and uneasiness, the regime is working hard to whip media and riff-raffs toward total confrontation with the Argentine people a foolish act of jumping into fire with a no desire to save the illegal vermin still nesting in our sacred lands. Let the dogs off hell feast on their flesh!

    The Argentine government had already made a solemn declaration that those who hurt the dignity of its supreme leadership and drive South Atlantic regional relations into the worst catastrophe would be the primary target of its punishment.

    They include the Malvinas illegal squatters whom will pay the ultimate penalty for their evil betrayal of the Argentine fatherland.
