When did the US "lose" Latin America?

[RaphaElBarrelLa]

US has no grip on Brazil.. Soon we'll be too much for you Americans.

[Phantasmos]

the day the us abanodoned sa for the middle east

[Frozenfireaizen]

united we stand but with communism we fall, democracy is the way GO U.S.A

[MsBigdave12]

were not talking about u.s.a. the topic is latin america. thats the problem, its always about america. the u.s needs to stop pockings its nose into latin america and let them decide to be communist or capitalist on there own.

[Frozenfireaizen]

@MsBigdave12 dude communism is for feeble minds who are trying to find a way to escape poverty and end up worse.

[MsBigdave12]

its not about communism vs capitalism its about letting neighboring nations to choose there own way and not interfering.

[GreggTheEgg]

@Frozenfireaizen Democracy is good and communism is bad, but the problem is that most Americans don't have any clue what their government and the wealthy elites have been doing there. One after another, US administrations, with help from shadow businesses and the CIA have been overthrowing democratic governments in the region and replacing them with puppet governments.

So yes, you are completely correct in your statement assuming that by "go USA" you mean 'stay out' of the region's affairs.

[1988rogers]

i think the u.s has become more and more irelevant!

[sedraopamp]

fuck gringos, your shit country generates wars with each president from Truman until now. Fuck illuminatis of Federal Reserve with his new world order. bullshit Imperialist...

[cronology]

Y exactamente es por eso que los seguidores de Ollanta son una bola de cholos ignorantes con resentimiento, grow some balls.

[cronology]

socialismo es una espada de doble filo, y ollanta no sabe ni mierda de politica, solo van a cagar las partes q ya tenemos buenas en Peru. Te han labado el cerebro hijo.

[Emyousmusa]

If there is any lesson from the past is even now South America should be aware, and watch its back, concerning U.S. and European interest, and pacts, because it could be another reason to bring out the people who want true change in there countries, and the U.S. sets it up and kills those people with the help of that particular countries armies, and assinations crews, so people we on the guard, and careful.

[cronology]

Peru is the strongest ally of the US in South America.

[future9mm]

fuck the u.s

[GreggTheEgg]

@future9mm I understand your anger, but this type of statement doesn't help. It makes Americans, who largely don't understand what's going on down there, think that people in Latin America hate the honest working people in America with solid principles. Americans don't need to be cursed at. They need to be educated.

[ayaytc]

@GreggTheEgg wow. sorry to butt-in six months after the fact, but having stumbled upon this comment (and your previous one below) during a random flash of concern for the "North-" American image in Latin America, I take my hat off to you sir for leaving not one, but TWO of perhaps the most succinct, articulate and correct comments in the history of youtube. Good day, sir. May our paths cross again.

First this video does not seem real, but here is my opinion. The Lakota Nation which used to be part of the USA separated from the country already. Don't believe me? Watch this on you tube!!! Lakota Indian Secession Movement Begins

[Papinuti]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[WillT30]

The US needs to treat the Latin and South Americans like partners, and equals, instead of cheap labor. When people democratically elect a government it is not the US's job to tell them whether they can keep it or not.

I think Latin and South America should stop working with the US completely. We have never helped them and our government is more corrupt than theirs (yes I am including Chavez and Morales- both good leaders who were democratically elected to help their people).

[greenman92553]

NONONO

We dont want to be partners with criminals

[MasterPervy123]

No we dont want usa fuck the usa. I am Peruvian and I shit on usa.

God Bless Hugo Chavez.

Latin America Russia China & Iran united against the Imperialistic Cunts of usa & europe.

FUCK THE USA.

God bless the SCO Alliance united against Imperialiasm.

[rogercito2007]

he says uh too much

[rainbowmatrixs]

When they started killing people peroid & taking from others..through out ALL time. They lost all respect.

[aaronhedges]

Why is this guy "talking" on a phone when it is completely obvious that the audio is much better than a phone connection. Very odd!

[Navywxman]

In other words since the US is having trouble installing thier favored brutal dictator due to the democratic movements that have brought to office those who are not in the pocket of wall street/washington, they are trying to divide and conquer through these secessionist movements.

When did the US lose latin america? A long time ago when the US started overthrowing and installing brutal right-wing dictators and helping them slaughter their people. That guaranteed it.

[IWantDemocracyNow]

some of the people writing comments on these videos, are freaking CLUELESS about the actual history of the last 100 years. Please people, PLEASE educate yourselves. Latin America begs of you!!!

[ahealthnut2]

I agree with you IWantDemocracyNow. I think a great place for them to see how the US has reared it's ugly head on these countries is to read John Perkins' book "Confessions of an Economic Hitman".

[TheBigHo111]

He is listening to the questions on the phone, not using it as a mic.

[YuriKenobi]

Indeed. They should buy him a headset though, would look better ^^

[nico3641]

I know. That's the best sounding phone ever!

:) It's not like he's reading either.

In sous America

[ahealthnut2]

5hikYerbouty & Nico3641: Think of it this way. You are talking to a friend on the phone and they want to record you with a video camera (a separate device) at the same time. Your friend is also taping himself with another video camera. Then the video is edited to show a seemless flow of conversation between each person. They included the audio from the video cameras and not the cellphone.

[buddhatikkigod]

You guys are so friggin ignorant its unbelievable. You should be thanking god their is a country like the US to stand up to these people. Without the US these monarchs would quickly seize more power, divide up land and start major conflicts.

[5heikYerbouty]

Are you aware that in latin America more dictators are placed by the USA than removed. So, I think they prefer that US stays away.

[SkinSinFilms]

you are either joking or you are completely insane in either case it's not funny.

[Mike1977a1]

Pepe is a right winger planted in the real news to deceive people into supporting neo-con agenda, dont listen to them they aretrying to deceive us on the left!

[MementoExpose]

He looks like Jimmy Kimmel

[lastnymleft]

So long as the US continues to refuse to acknowledge the evil it perpetrated historically, in supporting right-wing death squads, and overthrowing democratically elected governments, in the name of fighting communism, it will never be able to start the healing process. Politically, it will never do that, though, so it will therefore continue to covertly try to undermine and overthrow the regimes it doesn't like. Not until America gets so smacked down, and the empire collapses, will it pull back

[sugarpuddin88]

So basically government officials need to READ A BLOODY HISTORY BOOK first

I would add to that: Government official need to READ THE BLOODY CONSTITUTION as well!
