Reply #5: Shrum? Carville? this documents their "good works": serving corporate aims

This ended in disaster for them and deliverance from their neoliberal aims for the Bolivian people. Here's a summary from a bit torrent site:

Ahh, US-style democracy in action: he who buys the most ads and votes wins. The CBC's description:

"Our Brand Is Crisis" follows James Carville and a team of U.S. political consultants as they travel to South America to help Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada (aka Goni) become President of Bolivia. The film starts with a jolt - bloody riots break out in the streets of La Paz. People throw stones at the presidential palace and call for the government's downfall. Then it flashes back a year it time, to the beginning. Goni is on the campaign trail, promising to solve Bolivia's devastating economic crisis if he is elected. Behind the scenes are the American advertising experts, doing their best to sell Goni to the people.

If Shrum is backing someone, vote for the other guy.
