Dude, there is a reason why the goverment does not adequately fund the education system. That reason is to keep the "MAJORITY" which you speak off so dumb that they re-elect the same garbage over and over. I can give you thousands of reasons that would Justify a revolt.

So you are saying that the vast majority of Voting Dominicans (over 90%) are too dumb to make the right decision?

I reject your theory on so many ways but I will play along using your logic.

If it is true then why should I consider your opinion?

Also for the much of its history the USA had a population who mostly didn't even attend school or only went for s few years. So the first 150 years or so of the US elections were bad?

yes. black people could not vote.

Nor women.

nothing in the middle East starts wih peaceful protests, thats what the media allows you to see. The so called "peaceful protests". I been right there in the thick of these "war" zones, nothing is ever peaceful in these countries. As for original post, violence is clearly advocated in that post, no president of any country will simply step down from that post as a result of "peaceful protest", instead it is violence and the threat of violence, death of thousands that enacts change, so please instead of being "stillhere" go "back under" the rock from which you came.

thanks for your addendum , devin. maybe anthonyc does not consider those little details worthy of mention.

Oh I must of missed the war that brought down the Berlin wall or the war that changed the government of Poland......the war that is now bringing about change in Bangladesh........ The violent civil war in the USA to bring about civel rights for African Americans..etc.. ect.. and the list goes on of the people protesting for change through nonviolence and getting it... Yes.... instead it is violence and the threat of violence, death of thousands that enacts change..... but it the vast majority of times never start with violent protest.....
Oh so you where there the week/ months before the Egypt uprisings, you where in the main square as the protests were being dragged away and imprisoned for just being there.....

so please instead of being "stillhere" go "back under" the rock from which you came. Brasilenos4ever!!!!

mmmmmm.... So it is you.... the only person in the world that knows anything........ the only one that has an opinion and can make a comment on a subject and everyone else is JUST WRONG........should shut up and go back under a rock..... and here I was thinking that all people have ideas, opinions, thoughts and experiences to share and learn from others....

NO JUST YOU....

I will leave it at that as your the one person that knows all and we should all just bow down to your ego....

Thousands of Afro-Americans died during the civil rights movement, indeed the night Martin Luther King was killed their were riots in every major city in the U.S., it was the violence and the threat of violence that brought about change, there were a number of incidents, murders, assasinations, killings, lynchings that occurred over the course of the civil rights movement that eventually led to the changes that ocurred. You know nothing of what you are talking about.

The Berlin Wall did not come down because of a non-violent movement, thats the western propaganda machine in action that has made you to believe that, same as in Poland and bangladesh. Its all B.S.. You probably is one to believe that Iraqis wanted Saddam Hussein removed or that a majority of Muammar Gaddafi's people wanted him removed. Whatever you think, it is violence and as i said "the threat of violence" that brings about change. The only non-violent change that is occurring in the D.R. is the influx of millions of haitians into the country, thats the only change awaiting the D.R., more and more Haitians coming and going.
