SANTO DOMINGO. - The Dominican ruling PLD party’s campaign chief yesterday said his organization and its presidential candidate, Leonel Fernandez, always correctly conducted its political activity, contrary to the opposition PRD party’s candidate, who speaks only of the wealth accumulated from businesses within public office.
Francisco Javier said PRD candidate Miguel Vargas Maldonado of being monothematic to the country by saying he’s a man of great wealth and a great manager. "We prefer that the population gets the opportunity to listen to our political leaders’ proposals, but the PRD doesn’t know with what to eat with that, because it resorts only to insult and disqualification."
He said that if the PRD’s candidate is so interested in developing these topics, “he should explain to the country the genius of having built a house in La Romana, valued at more than RD$800 million while he was Public Works minister."
Garcia said it’s assumed that Vargas built the house in Casa de Campo (La Romana) while he wasn’t taking part in private activities, "so if the PRD candidate says he’s such a manager, to explain to the country which have been the large corporations under his management, because the most important post he occupied was Public Works minister, in which he showed that as a manager he doesn’t have anything."
For the political leader, Vargas Maldonado must say to him to the country what did, like manager who claims to be, when he was Public Work secretary, to the residents in the cities Santiago, San Cristóbal, the Fertile valley, San Francisco de Macorís, Port Silver, the National District and the provinces the Line the Northwest.
Garcia said the PRD’s candidate, “confuses the condition of good management with the one of an individual who has dedicated himself to do businesses where when doing so, it matters little that those businesses are carried out within the State, regardless that he occupies a public office."

I would love to see LF duke it out with MVM in the ring... Winner takes all.
There is nothing like it in the world. But one must have a taste for politics.
Three bourgeois parties with candidates are in the race, although one of the parties is virtually moribund.
All three bourgeois parties represent exclusively elements of the reactionary sector of the DR bourgeoisie. The liberal and moderate bourgeois are ... in practice and perhaps theory, too ... excluded from the electoral process. Only reactionaries enjoy the opportunity to prance around on the poitical stage.
Being from the same reactionary sector of the DR bourgeoisie, how can they compete or contest?
In most bourgeois democracies, the race is between a bourgeois reactionary and a bourgeois liberal, e.g., Mexico, Ecuador, Brazil, & Argentina. But in the DR, only reactionaries or the far right are in the race. Still the race in the DR seems as hotly contested as one that is ideologically diverse.
and for the incumbent "You stole more than I have and you didn't manage anything because you left nothing."
I love it. I love it.
Now this is bourgeois democracy or what V. Lenin calls the "pigsty."
The people, of course, are supposed to forget that they are hungry, uneducated, homeless, and sick and try to figure which bourgeois reactionary running for the office of president will steal less and manage better what's not stolen.
This is the bourgeois idea of liberty and justice for all.
