Ollanta Humala, Peru's New Presidente Elect

Yesterday Peruvians, in Peru, but also all over the world via their embassies went to the polls for a "segunda vuelta" or a run off for the Presidency. Who would it be? Ollanta Humala, holding fast to the campo and his father's Ayacuchano roots, but living and hailing from Lima or Keiko Fujimori, the daughter of one of the most corrupt-human rights abusing Presidents (Alberto) in recent past. Back in April the field was narrowed down to these two. Lately, Keiko seemed to be saying I will continue all of the social programs (giveaways to the campo to appease them) that my father began. Paving roads, giving uniforms and shoes to school children, constructing houses, but nothing to change their situation. Nice huh? Too bad the elder Fujimori used them to disguise his embezellment and human rights abuses. I am not just blowing smoke, Alberto Fujimori sits in jail serving sentences for human rights violations and corruption. Keiko says, if elected, she will not use her Presidential power to pardon and release her father and his croanies like Montesinoes. Funny the country is split on who loves and who hates the man as well as his daugher. Fujimoistas they call themselves. That trickled right down to his Harvard educated daughter, Keiko.
Ollanta Humala, a more leftist candidate, whom the Peruvian news media is skeptical of. They say we have never had a leftist President before. So we will wait and see....he is a former military man, and has some big money backing his campaign from Hugo Chavez and as of late Brasil who he seems to be loving up on. Ollanta wants to return Peru to Peru, by slowing down the invasion of foreign investors and businesses coming into and exploiting Peru, its people, and natural resources (especially mineral wealth). That has Chile in a bit of a raugh, because heck alot of Peru is Chilean. He speaks of freedom of expression and democracy (I thought they already had that, maybe not I can give some examples). Some say his wife is even more educated and might make an even better candidate than he.
Nonetheless yesterday at the polls, and it was a close one, Ollanta Humala was elected the next President of Peru. He will take office on July 28th which is Independence Day and will govern for the next 5 years.
Alot of people are waiting to see what will happen and what will be done during Ollanta's Administration, but the Fujimoristas are not going away...their are a lot of them hanging out in Congress.
