Just to join in on the Hipo-bashing, something I enjoy thoroughly since he is so deserving (ignorant, disrespectful, indecent, dictatorial), there is no way that someone with common sense can possibly want that this guy could ever manage the destiny of a few people, much less a nation of 9 million basically good folks. Yes, he will probably get the support of 25% of the population due to the large amount of government employees or government-dependent interests as well as strict party line voting, mostly based on the large amount of the uneducated, gullible, lower class.
However, my stereotypes have changed over the 8 years I have been living
here since the majority of Dominicans are very aware of their realities and, in this particular case, the majority realizes they made a huge mistake voting for this 'ding-dong' 4 years ago.
Leonel Fernandez is a well-educated, intelligent, decent man who governed this country as well as anyone has in its history and perhaps the best of all.
I believe the DR is lucky to have him as an alternative right now to try to get out of the messes Hipo has created as no one else comes close to being as well prepared for the task. This guy is so good I have no doubts he could be president of the U.S. without missing a beat. Really!
I hope the fraudulent maneuvers that Hipo and his cohorts will try don't work, so Fernandez can be elected on May 16th so this poor country can get back on the right track.
