I was just chatting with a friend of mine who teaches at a university in Bolivia. She said that things are changing there. Her husband has gotten a job in the local government. There is a new socialist president there, Evo Morales. He was voted in by the many poor of Bolivia. We are both concerned that the United States government will topple his regime as has happened so many times in the past in Central and South America. Please urge your elected officials to speak out against such an end to a democratically elected administration! We don't need anymore pro-US dictators at the cost of the democratic process becoming meaningless in Latin America.
