Insane Populists in Positions of Power

Bolivian Pres. Evo Morales

From the BBC:

Delegates are gathering in the Bolivian city of Cochabamba for a grassroots alternative to last year's UN climate change summit in Copenhagen.

The meeting will also celebrate the rights of Mother Earth on 22 April.

Bolivian President Evo Morales was one of several leaders who refused to sign the Copenhagen climate change deal.
He is set to use this week's talks to propose a world referendum to ask up to two billion people their views on how to tackle climate change.

Several thousand people are expected in Cochabamba for what is billed as the People's World Conference on Climate Change and the Rights of Mother Earth.

Seriously?

We're still waiting for some bright spots for Latin America, in other words, at least semi-normal leaders who are not comical, bombastic anti-Western grievance-mongers, and who are not keen on Communism, socialism, neo-paganism, and other thoroughly discredited, backward ideologies.
