4. Welcome to DU, Juanma!

Thank you for your very thoughtful open letter. That's the question, isn't it: where does he get these notions from?

I think he gets a lot of it from the International Misery Fund and of course our degenerate GOP - the only major party in the developed world that meets all 14 criteria for fascism.

Of course, it certainly didn't help that he seems to have an emotional need for acceptance from Argentina's landed elite - the very people who, when he attended the exclusive Cardinal Newman high school, referred to him as "Lacri."

To be fair, Macri has accomplished one very important task: he taught millions of voters to be a little more wary of being led around by big media. That's probably the most important learning experience voters, as a group, can have.

Thanks again for your thoughts, Juanma. And welcome to DU!
