I bet if the entertainment is excluded, there won't be many people attending this knumbskulls show of support..

Can't wait to hear the English!

How much is this vacation going to cost us?

How many buddies is he taking that we get to pay for?

Probably less than LF's upcoming vacation, but not bad for a warmup.

I can't wait until he starts to really piss away our tax money.

And don't forget when Hippo was president he screwed the IMF so many times that they stopped lending to us.

That's going to be a big problem because right now the money that the IMF is lending is the only thing keeping us from bankruptcy.

Cabeza de Pinga looking for freebees in USA

God help the DR if this guy retakes power.

God help the DR if this guy retakes power. =Oh sure where is god now?

Basta,

It's called a figure of speech. Que Pasa? Remember, I'm pro-legalization. Drugs and Prostitutes. Good tax revenue streams.

That is one crazy dude!

MJEV.

who is gonna vote this cuero macho?

the answer to you is, MANY more than what you imagine will vote, the cause is the extremely bad goverment we have had under LF and the other SOBs...Just for the record, i'm voting for Guillermo Moreno, but the truth is that this guy has very high possibilities to win again, ALL of that because of this stupid goverment

No matter what you all say the non educated dominicans will vote for the man again aaaay Dios mio AYUDANO porque ya chespirito se puso viejito.

airgordo The goverment is not stupid is the non educated peoples that do the talking, once this man start telling to them what he is going to give, they all will vote for him trust me at my age even you can be a president in the dominican.

Listen, should the PLD goverment would have been even close to what a goverment should be, the PRD and this man WOULD HAVE NEVER gotten a chance again, BUT that DID NOT happen, that is why i said there is a Goverment of Stupid people that don't understand that doing a lot of small things in MANY PLACES is way more effective than making a Mega project that NO ONE ASKED like the metro for example...

The TRUTH is that NO ONE on the PLD has any kind of moral to point to Hipolito Mejia, Why? becasue they have done even worst than him! so things instead of improving are actually getting WORSE, you just have to see the investigation programs of Nuria and Alicia Ortega, nobody has ever challenged them on a Trial or even dare, that speaks A LOT of them...

Aside from the task of handing out trinkets to his stateside botellas this unstylish person will have the North American public scratching their heads.

If this kook gets in office again you can be sure the Dominican Republic will be set back another 20 years.

If this mule gets in office again, the peso will be at 100 pesos per dollar, foreign investment will be non existant, the country will not be stable, the construction industry will collapse and at the end of his term he will have nothing to show for and Dominicans will vote for Leonel Fernadez 80% to 20% as they did in 2004. If this man wins our nation will certainly set back 20 years.

I would prefer that they allow Omega to return to the U.S. instead of this guy.................

Hit the nail on the head, ojedamaggiolo80...incompetence displacing incompetence - leading to more incompetence.

Y no se puede decir que no han hecho nada porque en realidad el gobierno de Leonel Fernandez es el unico que ah hecho algo por pais en los ultimos anos. La gente que vivia en canada de Guajimia se le construyo y se les entregaron 300 apartamentos, se construyeron miles de aulas para la educacion publica. La universidad Autonoma de Santo Domingo se ah modernizado con nueva biblioteca que la pone al par con cualquier biblioteca del primer mundo y parqueos modernos, torre administrativa en fin dejo bien lejos a unibe! Se construyo la autopista a samana, se construyo la primera linea del metro y se esta trabajando en la segunda que pasara por tu casa.

En Estados Unidos se cobra impuestos para mantener nuestras carreteras, autopistas, calles y avenidas en buen estado. Los ciudadanos nos gusta andar en calles que sirvan. Me gusta ver que hace el gobierno Dominicano con to lo cuarto que cobra en impuestos. Por algun lado se empiesa y para que sea como el gobierno de Hipolito Mejia que no dejo ni un carajo, el dolar se disparo a 55 por uno, los inversionistas extrajeros salieron juyendo y la industria de la construccion colapso prefiero uno que aunque robe deje algo que por lo menos se vea.

El metro de Santiago a la capital esta en carpeta tambien. Se esta terminando el corredor Duarte, El modernisimo hospital traumatologico de Villa Mella y hay 4 mas en construccion, La autopista nueva de Jarabacoa a Constanza, la de jarabaco al Rio, esta en fase de terminacion la autopista del coral, se termino la autopista de Bani a Sancristobal y un sin numero mas de proyectos que en el gobierno de Hipolito Mejia nunca se terminaron. Es cierto que nos falto mucho por recorrer pero numero uno, se dio un gran paso hacia la democracia al lograr que Leonel no se postule de nuevo.

# 2 tenemos que elegir entre el partido que con todo y sus faltas es el que mas ah hecho oh el partido que nuca ah hecho nada, seamos inteligente y escojamos el que mas ah hecho y al mismo tiempo luchemos por mejorer su forma de gobierno hasta lograr lo que queremos. Yo quiero el 4% para la educacion pero absteniendo de votar oh votando por el mas malo no es la form de lograrlo. Seamos mas sensatos y juntos democraticamente lograremos una mejor Republica Dominicana.

I can already see him with his crazy grin talking shi* on some Washington Heights corner to some tumbapolvo...

He ain't gonna be talking English. He's going to go to places along the East coast with Dominican communities and do typical campaign BS.

Oh and there are plenty of people lining up in DR to vote for him. It's not really a vote for him though. It's more like a vote for PRD. People are just tired of PLD.

This is an excerpt from Wikepedia...

During his government the country was affected by one of the worst economic crisis in his history, generated by the bankruptcy of three major commercial banks in the country, which resulted in high inflation, high country risk rating, currency devaluation and increasing local poverty.[1][2

Need we say more?...

I am not visiting the Dominican Republic if he becomes President again.
I have watched many interviews he has given during his last Presidential term... and frankly... his Spanish and manner of expressing himself is embarrassing. Madre mia... que Mejia!

You guys just don't get the point do you?? is not a matter of what happened, is not a matter of personal taste of somebody who is overseas like most of people that write here which will not make a difference... i Strongly suggest that you find out how the dominicans that VOTE feel about the PRESENT goverment, RESEARCH with your friends and family that LIVE IN DR... if you would live in DR like I DO, and have enough cold blood to see things as they are, you will understand very easily how is it possible that he has plenty possibilities when he was practically DONE.

If somebody does the math and the analisys of the actions of the PLD goverment, like i.e. THE PAQUETAZO FISCAL that is waiting on the congress, or how i had to see a RIDICULOUS cut of ONE FUC*KING PESO on the gasoline price when the Oil Droped 14 DOLLARS in one week, will come to the fact that LF is a so selfish individual that he would never make it easier to anyone rule his own party or be the FIGURE of it's own party.

Another example JUST happened yesterday, the OIL went down by 6 DOLLARS, This Goverment INCREASED AGAINST THE LAW the price os the Fuel AGAIN...Do you understand why Hipolito Mejia has the advantage to win the presidency??? as i said, is not a matter of wheather persoanlly he is to liked...

If Cabeza de Pinga gets elected again you better start hoarding bullets not gold......the Hippo will give Nutty Hugo a state visit and a parade .....need anyone say more ...its Danilo or back to the stone age

Well, tell that to the people that will vote form him, they say 52% will...how do you explain that?

@airgordo, i could care less WHAT you say about PLD or Leo, to be honest i would have voted for PRD too.....IF THEY HADN'T PICKED THIS DUMB@SS to be the candidate. If Leonel is an idiot then Hipolito is what he craps out when he goes to the bathroom. The Dominican people have a very short memory, us idiots believe things change in 8 years..it take DECADES upon DECADES for a country to become steadily successful, you can look at Leo's presidency, say he didnt do anything and then go @ss backwards and vote for this idiot. Out of all the CRAP he pulled last time he was in power, what scared me the most was when he told a reporter "Yo soy el jefe" guess who was the last person to say that in DR governmental history? TRUJILLO!. Look man, we just need to be patient living here that's all. But overall, not make rash decisions like go from Guatemala to Guatapeor....You know what it is to leave the dollar @14 pessos in 2000 and then find it @60 pesos in 2004? no excuses.

the dollar is 38.30 TODAY, but i'm paying HIGHER for ALL MY FOOD, on Friday i broke my record for the third Tim in less than 3 months BUYING THE SAME!!! my Mortage went from 10.95% TO FU*KING 16% in 3 MONTHTS!!! courtesy of the Idiot in power, so what do you want the people of this country to do with this??? if someone wants to UNDERSTAND dominican politics should begin with that and THIS:...2004 is almost 8 YEARS AGO, i need to pay my bills and eat TODAY and TOMORROW

I'm taking the time to write this assuming you are not on the PLD govt PAYROLL... I ALREADY have the person i will vote for and it is NOT the PLD or PRD or anything like that, my point is that if the elections were TODAY, hipolito would win on the first round by KO, that is the reality and if you have not seen that then you don't move along on the PUEBLO or you live in Siberia, that is what is going to happen if nothing dramatic from the comic goverment of the purpple IDIOTS comes..
