#2 "We are sure he will not defraud or fool us, like all the others,"

I believe this is known as "famous last words".

#5 Man, it would be so easy for leftists to infiltrate the USA. We have to worry about that. Especially with Hugo.

#6 What strikes me is having been stationed in South Korea which was pretty much leveled in the 50-53 war, you end up with stats like this compared the a major latin nation:

Using my 2003 Almanac-
South Korea
Population: 48M
Area: 37K sq miles
GDP (2000 est): $764B (13th)

Mexico
Population: 103M
Area: 742K sq miles
GDP (2000 est.): $915B (11th)

There is something fundamentally wrong there when countries which have not been devastated by war are bearly ahead given the vast natural resources, agricultural tracts and population they have. Then again Japan (3rd), Germany (5th) and South Korea all have something in common. American armed forces/soldiers who weren't withdrawn. Pride has its price appearently. You da man Evo.
