This December in Chile is going to be a presidential election. Chile is the most successful country in Latin-American, for its democracy and economical performance. There are three options for this presidential election. Sebastian Piñera is the representing the political coalition for change (coalición política por el cambio) that represents the right wing tendency. He is well known world class business man, an liberal economist that posses important companies in our country, like LanChile . The second option is Eduardo Frei, he is from the democratic cristian party, that belongs to the political concentration coalition, also with the socialists party, and the party for democracy. That coalition has been in the government for 78 years.
Eduardo Frei had the presidency from 1994 to 2000. He is an Ingenier, also the son of an ex president, Eduardo Frei Montalva in the period form 1964 to 1970.
The third option is Marco Enriquez Ominami that is an ex militant of the concertation coalition, but he (in general)is not seen as a person who belives in socialism and revolution and that has a lefty tendency. His position is very similar to the comcertacion coalition, but he criticies the govermnet and the coalition in general.
Those are the tree principal options but there is one more, the political coalition of the left socialist sector, Juntos Podemos Más. The candidate for this coalition is Jorge Arrate.
I´m not inscribed in the electoral records, therefore, I don´t vote. I wasn’t to register because I don´t agree with the current constitution, which, it was created in the military dictatorship.

Hello, Today I´ll talk about september 18TH.
On 18 of September in Chile, the people and citizenship celebrates the National Independence Day. This occasion is for the anniversary of the first national republican government. On 18 of September of 1810 was the first national meeting, but only after almost 8 years later in 1818 the civil war finish between the Spanish and the republican army. Where Bernardo O Higgins, General of the Chilean army wins the battle of Maipú. In 1833 Chile was their final constitution after 5 years of discussion between liberal and conservative groups.
The people celebrate independent day and the birth of the Chilean republic, playing making barbecues with family and friends. Eating meat and drinking wine. Dancing cuecas, that is the national folk dance. This dance is practice by the peasant in the country. Chileans also play traditional games like fling kites, rodeo and horse racing. This country and farm culture, that’s because Chile was a country administrated by the Spain Kingdom, by a monarchy with residence in Spain. My family went out to the country to celebrate the native holidays. I come also my grandmother and all the brothers of my breast and it eats. It was very entertaining.
Byee!
