    President Evo Morales, greeting Quechua Indians in El Alto earlier this month

    Morales was elected on a platform promising to bring equality to Bolivia's indian Majority
    President Evo Morales, greeting Quechua Indians in El Alto earlier this month, was elected on a platform promising to bring equality to Bolivia's indigenous majority.
    President Evo Morales' effort to introduce indigenous Bolivian values and symbolism into official Bolivian life has been denounced by some as racial politics.

    The Colonizers don't like it when the colonized fight back.
    I expect Amerikkkan sponsored violence in Bolivia any day now.


    After all, we oppose democratic rule every where. Morales was elected by over 80% of Bolivia. Why should the white minority get their way ?
    Oh, because it costs the oil companies money!

    The age-old system has kept thousands of similar towns alive for centuries. Now, President Evo Morales, who became Bolivia's first indigenous head of state last January, is holding up those values of common ownership and consensus decision-making as a model for this impoverished country -- and angering its white minority, which accuses him of playing racial politics in his self-proclaimed indigenous revolution.
