few weeks ago, the Peruvian electoral campaign focused on drug testing of some candidates who thought it was not a bad idea to put this item on the agenda although there is no requirement for that. For them, it was important to prove they were drug users. Almost all took that step unless Alejandro Toledo, who by that time occupied the top of the polls, and Ollanta Humala, the nationalist who has now taken the name of "Gana Peru" to his movement. Both refused to regard it as unnecessary and trivial for campaign.
But everything changed last Sunday when a surprise, and no one demanded it at the time, Toledo announced that he had done such a test and had negative results. Some analysts have tried to interpret this move of the candidate when there were repeated many times that the taste would not give his opponents. The question is why did at this time when that issue had passed. Many have criticized. A Humala seemed a "farce" while Pedro Pablo Kuczynski, the former minister and a candidate in recent polls has increased between 4 and 5 points, said he doubted much of that test because the laboratory did not performing such tests. Peru Possible reaction was immediate and it was not very wise and rather unfortunate, his spokesman Carlos Bruce said the candidate of the Alliance for the Great Change "seems to have Alzheimer's or be a liar."
Exhibitions and little discussion of height
So far no serious discussion of ideas in Peru and rather simply a presentation of plans of government in all the 11 candidates: one organized by the newspaper El Comercio and the other by National Elections Jury (JNE). It was precisely in the later, Toledo decided to make the announcement about his drug test. However, was not the only highlight of that night: they were two hours more irrelevant phrases, anecdotes and jokes that serious proposals. At least that is what that has become popular among voters, the Internet and in newspapers.
Toledo acknowledged his "successes and weaknesses" and said he left "an unfinished agenda in the social, environmental and institutional want to complete." Keiko Fujimori, second in polls of likely voters, used the issue of insecurity as the "leit-motiv" of their statements by stating that "only discuss human rights of terrorists and criminals", when the truth is that " abuse and rape offenders without anything happening to them. "
As for the third candidate in the polls, the former mayor of Lima Luis Castañeda Lossio reiterated his proposals to plant the country's hospitals and schools, technical institutes or highway in the Andes, as it ensured that she refuses to "consider poverty as part of the landscape" . The nationalist Ollanta Humala emphasized that previous governments have neglected the task of redistributing wealth, he suggested "change the economic model, but was careful to use vocabulary rupture.
details
never missing one of the most stressed in the presentation of El Comercio, and not just by their approach, was Ricardo Noriega National Awakening Party, a man who not outspoken and very radical ideas. That night, in his last words, decided to take the whip-a sort of whip to "strike" to all candidates, directing harsh words to each of them.
front of the cameras, said: "I moved to VRAE (Valley of the Apurimac and Ene River, narco busy area) and the patrolmen gave me a job, I have given his whip. First to give Fujimori, I I can not give Mrs. Keiko, suddenly her husband gringo does anger me, but I'm going to DINOES (where he is imprisoned Alberto Fujimori) to provide you with this whip. He also said that "a PPK (so Kuczynski knows him) we do Castañeda shouting in English and we will talk because it is dumb. "Besides, said" we gave Chile PPK as a minister and I am confident that with American flag we want to deliver to the United States. "Finally, said all were" Supaipawawa "which means" son of the devil ", probably one of the worst insults that can be addressed in the Peruvian Andes.
The" private parts "of Kuczynski
Some sector of the Peruvian press has not hesitated to draw Pedro Pablo Kuczynski as possible "outsider" in these elections despite the adjective no longer reflects the candidate has extensive experience in the political life of Peru. However, is that most played in recent weeks, not only grow in the polls, despite maintaining fifth-but also because he was fondled twice, something that has caused many a headline.
The first time it happened was a few weeks ago, when on his visit to Peru's main port, Callao, a woman approached and touched his testicles suddenly, to the surprise of the candidate and his companions. That was enough for Kuczynski achieved many headlines and front pages in the press. But it was not the only time. A few days ago, was just the same but this time was the work of an enthusiastic follower of PPK. Although no one doubts that this is not has been planned, many believe that has given more popular candidate. Via
