Santo Domingo.- The once-powerful Social Christian-affiliate PRSC party yesterday selected Foreign Relations minister Carlos Morales as its new president, who wasn’t present in the Assembly.

It also chose Ramon Rogelio Genao as its General Secretary, and Maximo Castro Silverio, Organization Secretary, among other leaders to high posts.

The PRSC, under the late Joaquin Balaguer, held office for 22 years (19666-1978 and 1986-1996), in electoral victories often marred by accusations of poll rigging and stuffing ballot boxes.

Why not post a picture of the present DR foreign minister Carlos Morales Troncoso instead of these two dead turkeys, from the "not so well to be remembered past"?

He was out looking for the cash chickens to give to the populace to try to mimic the very successful campaign of Amable.

Carlos Morales must be pleased to see himself thought of at the same time as the two National Nightmares in the photo .........could they not have photo shopped Hitler and Stalin in the same photo that would have completed the subliminal message

I don't mean to be disrespectful to a former President; but I remember reading somewhere that Dr. Balaguer was a closeted Homosexual.
I repeat, it is not my intention to offend anyone; but that claim struck me as odd (considering all the "sons" of Balaguer that have come out after his death); so I thought I share it with the list and perhaps someone can shed some light on this.

He was probably asexual like Michael Jackson.

Trujillo wasn't that bad, at all. He was a man con una mano de Hierro.
By the way, I will be visiting Madrid in September, anyone knows where he is buried??
