Election dashed Beijing's dream: UCLA professor - TW
CNA , SAN FRANCISCO
Thursday, Apr 08, 2004,Page 2

The result of the March 20 presidential election has dashed -- perhaps forever -- Beijing's "one China" dream, a Los Angeles-based academic and China hand has said.

Following the election, Beijing can no longer assume that most of the people of Taiwan wish to unite with China, and Beijing must now decide how far to bend, said University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) political science professor Richard Baum in his latest essay entitled "The Chinese Puzzle," which was carried in the San Jose-based daily Mercury News last Sunday.

For the first time, an absolute majority of Taiwanese voters cast their ballots for an avowedly pro-independence candidate, Baum noted.

A: Mr. UCLA Prof. Baum completely out of touch with reality, the facts, or on the Commi Puppet Payroll along with CNN's Mike Chinoy.

1. The KMT has bought/bribed every election they have ever one.
2. 80% of Taiwan citizens NEVER have wanted anything to do with the Communist Chinese Pigs.
To say anything different, Perform A:

Even the KMT polls showed 80% of Taiwan citizens were happy that Chen won the election in 2000 even though he only got 38% of the vote. That was the period before the Fascist KMT Cronie Machine realized what had happened and they started their dirty tricks plans.
