This fellow has got it, based on what I'm seeing with Jon Stewart.

1. Soft spoken guy but looks kind of like Charles Bronson.
I bet he can get tough when he wants to.

Nice interview on the Daily Show.

3. He's outlasted maybe 90% of his predecessors in that job
He is truly amazing.

I hope he doesn't turn into a repressive shit, but I'll understand it if he does.

5. As long as the basic lot in life of the peasant class is improving
and he can keep the IMFWorldBankWolfowitz shackles off his economy, they will always have a chance.

7. Keep in mind that Shrum and Carville (GCS) ran his opponent's campaign..
.. and as the polling was going against their man they started an Evo=Bin Laden smear campaign against Morales. It is well documented in the film ' Our Brand Is Crisis'.

8. You may not be able to vote for him, but
you CAN help confront and debunk the tsunami of propaganda targeting him, Chavez, and the other leaders of the Bolivarian Reforms occurring in South America, and pray that these reforms migrate to El Norte.

9. Stewart: "(our) elections are fixed."
Morales: "Si eso es verdad, después debe ser cambiada." - If that's true, then it must be changed. (applause)

12. I was very impressed with what I saw and heard
and dammit, why can't WE have someone like him?? Someone who knows what the common people are, and seems to give a damn about them?

Great line on "axis of evil".
