Former Newsman Fronting El Salvador's Leftist Group is Presidential Hopeful




A frontrunner in El Salvador’s upcoming presidential election has two Web sites, a Facebook page and the designation of “hottie,” courtesy of one political analyst.

He has taken a page out of Barack Obama’s playbook and tried to draw a comparison between himself and the American president. One of his campaign ads, despite the U.S. Embassy’s protests, features images of Obama and points out that both he and Obama were attacked by conservative parties who accused them of being associated with terrorists and radicals.

But for Mauricio Funes, a former journalist for CNN en Espanol, ties to radical leftists are no mere accusation. It’s a fact: He is the candidate of Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front (FMLN), a former guerrilla group and by-product of El Salvador’s Communist movement that waged years of armed struggle before gaining legal status as a political party following a bloody civil war.

This Sunday Funes will face off against Rodrigo Avila, the former deputy director of the national police and the candidate of the National Republican Alliance Party (Arena), which has been in power for two decades. And while Avila has been gaining steadily in the polls, it is Funes who is provoking both inspiration and suspicion throughout the Western Hemisphere.

Latin American watchers wonder just what lies ahead for El Salvador, an American ally, if Funes wins.

Born in 1949 to middle class parents, Funes received earned a university degree in Letters, with a specialty in Social Communications – an upbringing and education that separate him from the impoverished farmer backgrounds of other leftist Latin American leaders, such as Hugo Chavez of Venezuela and Evo Morales of Bolivia.

In 1986 he began a 21-year career as a television reporter. His only experience in politics, prior to being tapped as the FMLN presidential nominee in September 2007, was interviewing his party’s former guerrilla leader, Schafik Handal.

indeed, anything that try to attach itself, to something else, to prove what itself is, and try to use this, to convince of it's own pure motive's, show itself has no pure motive at all, but to win for itself, with no sight capable of seeing what itself is, so definitely, will not have any sight of other's interest in mind at all, except of course, only seeing and accepting the interest of those that serve it's own singular goal and purpose.

great post, and great insight into corruption...

peace

the power of inferrence is indeed ominous.

and ominous blanet the earth, and what smite itself, shall not be smote.

those who have smote themselves will be immune for they have conditioned themselves beyond reproach of others.

lol...

by accepting all reproach for a time, but reproached become reproacher, a constant sad state, born only but with the sight of all lips telling the new beginning, quickening mortal time, marching with boots alone, to nine nine and nine, equal up and down, side to side, ushering divine divide.

bound and intertwined into a 0 indeed, be the fee and the fare.

peace T2D.

what the hell is that, lol???

munch, munch, munch indeed, did the eye's see, and climb the ladder, that was but a mad hatter, that told the goad, that was in a code, that stole a pain, that wiped out the stain, the bleed a heart, dry of new start, and ignited a fire, the quenching could not quench???

and as the sublime walked forth from the blind, bliss was born and misery did die.

davidben...you are a cutie...i just wish i knew what you were talking about lol.

perfect time makes all meanings clear in perfect time.

peace out.
