Honduras views: Presidential crisis In Central America's worst crisis in a decade, Honduran President Manuel Zelaya was sent into exile on Sunday amid a dispute over his proposals to change the constitution. Some Hondurans share their thoughts on the deposed leader with the BBC's Stephen Gibbs in Tegucigalpa: ARGENTINA DOMINGUEZ, Retired President Zelaya deceived us. He talked about democracy but then got too close to [Venezuelan President Hugo] Chavez. What hurts me most is that four years ago, I voted for him. But look at what he has done. We have become a haven for drug-runners. We have some of the most violent kidnapping in the world. He manipulated people and said he would help the poor, but he has done nothing. I want my grandchildren to be free. I don't want them to grow up in a country like Venezuela or Cuba.

You can see in sample of 5, only 1 think he should come back at all, so 80% think drama king needs to stay away. Where go the 80,000,000 Lempiras he take from Central Bank on 6/26/09, nobody forget this here. Bank videos on websites YouTube.

The political crisis could end instantly if Zelaya would put his country first and accept defeat with dignity - but if that was the type of man he was he wouldn’t be finding himself in the current mess to begin with.
