2. There is something very compelling about the guy.
He came off as honest, sincere and unintimidated. The fact that he has kept his promises to his electorate got him a big hand with the studio audience. Since I can't vote for him I'll K & R

7. He'd have a huge treasury for reallocating resources to the most needy in America and abroad.
We'd have nationalised healthcare, energy, higher education.... instead we have heartless monsters who are, in one way or another, trying to kill us all.

8. It was fascinating seeing the face, hearing the voice of someone we've only read about
until now. He's been through so much already, with a long way to go, as his country has been so wildly abused by the oligarchy and some good old fashioned vicious U.S. meddling and bullying.

Wasn't he instrumental in getting the water privatization obscenity thrown out of the country? I believe he was. He's been in the forefront of the peoples' movement.

He's right:he's not an "Axis of Evil" kind of guy (but we know, by God, who is!).
