On some Latin American lessons about those who run too vigorously as "outsider" candidates.
(TL;DR: It generally doesn't end well. Either they don't understand institutional processes, and therefore fail as impotent, or else they fight institutional processes, and therefore leave the country weaker.)
Beware the Outsider
I’m afraid of Donald Trump — because in Latin America, I’ve seen what the likes of him can do.

Ahh, propaganda in the morning, it smells like victory.
I love how how there is no mention of the past 100 years of US backed, planned or outright militarily achieved coups, nor any mention of the failed leaders of those countries that we put in place.
No mention of the disappeared (which is one of the reasons there are not a lot of people on the left that have governing experience, because they've all been tortured and shot), no mention of US corporations running death squads to murder anyone that opposes them.
For the most part this entire article can be ignored because of the giant elephant in the room.
+Stan Pedzick Good point that one of the "dangers" of "outsiders" taking over is that folk with vested interests in the status quo ante (e.g., the US government, US businesses, or a collaboration of both) may take precipitous and destabilizing action to eliminate them.
That doesn't seem as likely with Trump (even if the Chinese get alarmed by him).
It's the institution in this case that weakens our country. The U.S. has been under control of the the banking cartel who control FedRes and CFL, among others, since at least 1913. I doubt Trump can change it but the other candidates are def under it's control and influence. There are no real choices for the average American citizen. Remember, that even until the end of the Roman Empire the still put S.P.Q.R. on everything. Nothing new under the sun.
+Stan Pedzick We all should know that the U.S. is just another puppet in a much larger and nefarious globalist organization based in the City of London.
I’m concerned about his receiving CIA briefings. We’ve seen that he has no buffer before he speaks.
