The U.S. interventionism in the politics and the internal war of Colombia http://carlosqc.blogspot.com/2010/04/presidential-elections-in-colombia-and.html

Colombia will hold presidential elections this upcoming May 30, and although many believe in a predictable victory of the Alvaro Uribe political party, but the opposition groups continue their struggle to change the history of a country so rich in natural and human resources, but sadly mired in a bitter internal war, for too long already. The 2010 presidential elections in Colombia, will not only be decided by the Colombian people. Many interest groups will be watching anxiously and influencing the vote from the United States.

Thanks to a tremendous support from the U.S., the current Uribe administration –with its Conservative allies- has secured a majority control of the State powers, and it’s running a weak and manipulated democracy, gaining control of almost all the media and poll survey companies, as well as strong ties to industrial and business groups, the police and armed forces, and the illegal but influential paramilitary groups.

The Colombian right-wing political force, is one of the strongest, most violent, corrupt and racist in the world, and they are determined to hold their power in the Executive and Legislative (recent elections were held) at any cost. Since 1998, Colombia is ruled by Conservative presidents Andres Pastrana and Alvaro Uribe, with the strong support of the U.S. military, financial and political powers, through a multimillion-dollar aid and logistics.
