conversation with the interviewee--a local city council member--about US
politics. I thought it was very interesting that the interviewee, a
distinguished gentleman with grey hair, compared the political
philosophy of George Bush to that of Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro,
suggesting that they were all "radicals." He then hoped, aloud, that
Obama would be more "conservative." Interesting. And when you think
about it, there aren't too many conservatives in Latin America nowadays,
but the moderates do tend to have a quieter foreign policy.
Interesting.
