I don't know why I bother on this message board but...Morales did fail to get voters to approve the change needed in the Bolivian constitution for him to serve a fourth term as president.

I think it’s time for Bolivia’s left wing to let go of Morales.

y'all know he wasn't on the ballot, right

Of course, but he still holds a lot of power through the unions and MAS.
― Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 10 November 2020 16:33 (three years ago) link
or do you mean that Bolivia's left wing should abandon his party, who just won 55% of the vote in a three way race xp
― it bangs for thee (Simon H.), Tuesday, 10 November 2020 16:33 (three years ago) link
I think he should just retire and let other people continue the good work.
― Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 10 November 2020 16:35 (three years ago) link
Other people at MAS, that is.

Why?
― Piven After Midnight (The Yellow Kid), Tuesday, 10 November 2020 17:16 (three years ago) link
13 years at the helm is good enough. Term limits are important, he already amended the constitution by packing the courts with his people to get past one. He did good stuff for Bolivia and his legacy can live on with MAS, but I honestly think that him seeking too much power again will hinder MAS’s objectives today.
― Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 10 November 2020 17:24 (three years ago) link
Let MAS decide what will or won't hinder them.

All I'm seeing is the odd rally after a return from exile rn.

He can be a spiritual figure and have rallies all he want, I just hope he lets Arce, the person who was elected by the people, do his job.

BREAKING: Bolivia has cancelled and returned the full sum of the US $346.7 Million IMF loan taken out by the coup regime, in rejection of IMF impositions on internal economic policy.As of February 2021, the loan had already racked up $24.3 Million in interest and commissions. pic.twitter.com/4sPkAJRtsg— Kawsachun News (@KawsachunNews) February 17, 2021

Ah! those lovely multi-million dollar "commissions" so deservingly earned by some mega-banks for assisting with the paperwork and handling the transfer of funds.

Ridiculous to call it a coup when there was legitimate elections and landslide victory for the opposition party and a peaceful transfer of power.
― Van Horn Street, Sunday, 14 March 2021 02:12 (three years ago) link
Didn’t the government that took over last year without being democratically elected kill dozens of protesters? And people continued to protest? I don’t think the legitimate elections happened in a vacuum.
― JoeStork, Sunday, 14 March 2021 03:18 (three years ago) link
xp lol what???? Her party polled 4% and as for peaceful, you don’t remove criminal liability from police and the military if you think the transfer of power is going to be peaceful.

Was she in charge of the military while Morales resigned under military threat? Or of the National Union of Workers?
Did she make the election audit that lead to widespread false claims that Morales had committed electoral fraud?
If there is clarity that she indeed contributed to the errors to the OAS report or that she colluded with the National Union and military to oust Morales, then I'll gladly called it a coup.
― Van Horn Street, Sunday, 14 March 2021 22:31 (three years ago) link
I still think a Morales 4th term would be largely unconstitutional and that he ought to have respected the results of the 2016 referendum.
― Van Horn Street, Sunday, 14 March 2021 22:36 (three years ago) link
Do they have hanging for fascists like Anez in Bolivia? Be cool if they did.
― xyzzzz__, Sunday, 14 March 2021 23:12 (three years ago) link
Calling it opposition crackdown is hyperbolic, Añez barely represents the opposition.
