Without the joyful pertness of Venezuela's Hugo Chávez ("I hope the black man wins"), Argentina's President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner admitted she "admired" Obama, though she had supported Hillary Clinton. Cristina succeed her husband, Néstor, as president at the end of last year, and they always thought of themselves as the Clintons of underdevelopment.
Still, Obama's victory might somewhat help improve the relationship between both governments, which is now tense not only for the old rows with the International Monetary Fund but for a new scandal that was also news this week: a jury convicted a Venezuelan businessman involved in a ring suspected of smuggling illegal money into Argentina for Fernández's presidential campaign.
Should Argentines have cared more? It's said, and it's true, that Argentines can be talented individually but have a fierce incapacity to grow as a group. The day the "Yes, we can" mantra becomes an Argentine conviction, our history might start to change.
