It won't happen. The Colombians have shown in the past that they are much more sensible than their neighbors in Venezuela.

Colombians were controlled by the deep state.

That is why they were so awesome lately.

This guy’s name is Petro and he is for clean energy? That’s like a guy named Forrest Green who’s for fossil fuels.

I hope the people of Colombia are smart enough to avoid this guy.

Things can always get worse, much worse...

The 58-year-old economist is about 20 points behind right-wing candidate Ivan Duque

Typical Yahoo bias.

Let's try:

It’s worked out so well for other south and central American countries. So why not?

Folks in Colombia are very worried about Petro...damn near on panic mode. He may pull it off but it’s doubtful. I dont know of any Colombians voting for him.

His main message? “LET’S MAKE COLOMBIA LIKE OUR NEIGHBOR VENEZUELA!”

A good percentage will still vote for him.........

This is the mood: “I really don’t like either of them, but as I have to choose, it has to be Duque,” said Carlos Mora, a 52-year-old lawyer. “With Petro, I really think we’ll end up like Venezuela.”

Duque will win with 10 %?

If this guy wins, the refugee flow from Venezuela to Colombia might stop and reverse after a couple of years.

Clearly Petro is jealous of nieghboring Venezuela’s successful leftest Government. Of couse the glowing stories of how GREAT things are in Venezuela told by the millions of vacationing citizens only add to the jealous.
