The summit of the Americas
There is really not much I can write after reading the excellent summary of Andres Openheimer. I think in the long run there will be a block of countries that will go with the free trade and the US and a block that will remain isolated and probably stagnant. In other words, Chavez spoiled brat tantrums and the Mercosur bluff will end up benefiting the US even more in the long range. I am sure that eventually the Mercosur will find a way to deal with the US sooner or later as dealing with Europe will not be any easier. If Lula is not reelected, Chavez and Kirchner will be left holding the hat. You read it here first.
