That's like picking the least smelly shit.

I'd say Pedro II. Few could say he didn't care for Brazil's future.

le helicopter guy seems to be popular nowadays.

No idea why.

>>1437673
Ronald Reagan ;^)

Deep down you know it to be true.

Fidel Castro

In Cuba a medical student will whore herself for toothpaste. Nice leader you've got there.

>>1437751
Are you implying the rest of Latin America isn't like that?

>>1437751
Actually I can confirm that statement since my father being a marine engineer, he knew people, and some of those people said they'd buy panties and bras just to get laid in some Cuban harbor
In Nigeria they used powder detergent, but that's a whole other story
>>1437755
It isn't

>>1437758
>It isn't
I highly doubt that.

>>1437755
Simply no.

>>1437764
>t. has never been in SA and can only shittalk

>>1437774
I haven't been to Latin America.

I'm assuming on the basis that it's poor as fuck that prostitution wouldn't exactly be uncommon, especially since prostitution is through the roof in Eastern Europe which is comparably wealthy.

>>1437785
Well you don't pay South American prostitutes with bras or panties or toothpaste, you pay them with actual money
And those Cuban women, not prostitutes, just desperate women

To clarify
If you want to get laid by trading stuff like that
9/10 women in Cuba would accept
1/10 women in the rest of SA would accept (with the obvious exception of Venezuela)

Anon from Guatemala here, definitely not like that. Also pic related, Jorge Ubico, the best president of Guatemala's history and definitely one of the best in Latin America.

Peron and the Kirchners

>>1437751
Maybe if other Latin American medical students did the same their country would also manage to get one of the highest HDIs in Latin America despite an abysmal GDP.

>>1437673
Also Pedro II is the only right answer. Peron was shit.

HDI is basically proportional (not equal, don't sperg) to LE x GNI x YS

LE = life expectancy
GNI = gross national income (per capita obviously)
YS = average years of schooling

Cuba gets a huge boost because of LE (they may be fudging statistics) and YS (the problem with YS is that it doesn't take into account quality, its basically presumes that more years = better)

>>1437863
Time will prove me right

You have a single fact to back that up?

>the problem with YS is that it doesn't take into account quality, its basically presumes that more years = better
Considering that Cuba has something like 4 times more doctors per capita than the US and the lowest HIV prevalence in the Americas, I'd presume something must be working

Jorge Batlle Master Race
>Universal Suffrage
>Women Suffrage (later)
>Decentralization of the Executive Power
>Welfare State
>Made private services into public monopolies
>Work rights and guarantees

And all this starting in... 1903 (though this would materialize later)

There wasn't a more revolutionary chap than him in LatAm (And Anglo-America too quite likely)

Mariano Melgarejo

>>Melgarejo was said to have given a vast amount of land to Brazil (Treaty of Ayacucho), for what he described as a magnificent white horse. The stories tell that a Brazilian minister presented Melgarejo with a white horse and other gifts, and to show his appreciation Melgarejo pulled out a map of Bolivia, traced the horse's hoof and gave that land away to the Brazilian government.

>it's ok to reach such a level of poverty that you hasve to whore yourself for basic goods
>As long as everybody is equal, right?
Hahahahahahaha!

Commies actually believe this. No wonder you always have to relly on tyranny to acomplish your political distopias, that only last for as long as the dictator is in power. .

it´s Jose Batlle y Ordoñez you mong, go back to the Liceo

>>1437751
In the rest of Latin America she'll just get raped and murdered though

Pedro II or Vargas anyone else is a waste of time

>>1437785
People can afford essentials though if they save up they can afford stuff. It isn't like Cuba were they will suck dick for pants.

>>1438156
I laughed, thanks anon.

Big cities filled with poor people=crime

It sucks because the place where I live wasn't shitty (not a city). Sure not everyone had 100 inch Tvs and their own helicopter but we didnt live in dirt huts, we aren't black after all. Then again i lived in a small town and was kinda better off then most but still. It was a community. We wuz a gud bois.

Which parameter would you use for that?

>>1437845
Why the Kirchners?

From your opinion to your opinion

Pedro II. guy was literally a philosopher and scientist

>>1445477
He wasn't even the leader of the only successful thing he had a hand in.
I mean, maybe the he's leader of proving that capitalism eventually prevails over everything.
