Is he trying to MCGA? CNN seems shocked that he won. Said he was a “staunch conservative” who had been critical of the country’s deal with rebel groups. He’s young too.

Does he enjoy cocaine? Because it’ll probably be a lot easier tenure for him if he enjoys cocaine.

Don’t think so. So, he’ll probably be dead in a week. Apparently very pro business and anti-tax.

I'd rather work in the CDC's Level 4 laboratory without a protective suit than ever be the President of Columbia.

Same with Mexico.

You have a longer and less stressful shelf-life as a sky-diving instructor. At least when you sky-dive you're only looking over your shoulder for one thing...do I have a chute on?

Considering those rebel groups have traditionally been funded by people like Chavez in Venezuela, this would probably be a good time to start taking them out again.

Venezuela is broke and having civil unrest. They really can’t afford to be bankrolling FARC right now.

Colombia should take advantage of the civil unrest and invade Venezuela. Big oil gains.

Colombia is a completely different country now than it was in the 80’s and 90’s. It still has pockets of violence, but most of the country is very safe with booming tourism and real estate markets.

Venezuela could become a problem. Tons of Venezuelans are flooding into Colombia. More will follow because even if the Colombian economy hits a downturn, it will still be better than Venezuela for years to come.

Columbia is a much different place now and the FARC deal was an absolute joke. And he probably is a Trump fan given the fact that Hillary traded a trade deal for foundation kickbacks that enabled her largest donor to rape the denude primary rainforest and for good measure drill and pollute the rivers there.

Venezuela is a big problem for them, and they can see firsthand what socialism can do to an oil rich country.

Smuggling and the violence that goes along with it are a huge problem. Go figure, Venezuela sells gas for about one cent US per gallon.

True. Wouldn't want to be a law and order judge either.
