The fact that you equate the electoral system with democracy means you've believed in that TV a bit too much as well.<br /><br />As a gringo, I'm working to organize against the problems we struggle with here in the USA, as well as amplify those voices at home and around the world, such as OIDHO, that deserve to be heard and yet are silenced. I hope you choose to read their statement as I think it might help to clarify some things for you about what democracy, representation, elections, and totalitarianism mean to some of the people struggling right now in Oaxaca.<br /><br />FYI, I probably won't waste any more time with you so don't be surprised if you find yourself deleted in the future...as i've <a href="http://zapagringo.blogspot.com/2006/07/blog-intro.html">already made clear</a>, this isn't a forum for anonymous haters...<br /><br />yours,<br />RJRJ Maccanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11330027127067847774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31268138.post-8299801569352342522006-11-22T11:46:00.000-05:002006-11-22T11:46:00.000-05:00As if the appo really represented Mexicans and as ...As if the appo really represented Mexicans and as if we Mexicans did not have other means of participation in the public and democratic life in our country. What a nice website of naive imbeciles who really believe these appo thugs and their prd radical allies are helping us Mexicans in any way. They are trying to create chaos because they lost in the elections and since they cannot advance their totaltarian agenda, supported by dictators like Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez.<br />Our electoral system and our democracy getting hurt by your stupid and false stories. Get real, we have a competetive electoral system in Mexico, it works and there are several political parties, PRI, PAN, PRD, PT, etc. and they all participate freely in clean elections. Bastards like you are only hurting the democratic aspirations of the mayority of Mexicans. Appo does not even represent 10 % of the people of Oaxaca.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
