SUBJECT: UPCOMING US ELECTIONS; US AMBASSADOR TO ARGENTINA EARL 
ANTHONY WAYNE; 11/01/06 
 
 
1. SUMMARY STATEMENT 
 
Leading international stories today include the upcoming US 
legislative elections; and a radio interview with Argentine 
Ambassador Jose Octavio Bordon about US Ambassador to Argentina Earl 
Anthony Wayne. 
 
Leading "Clarin" carries an op-ed page by Francis Fukuyama, 
professor of International Political Economics at Johns Hopkins 
School of Advanced International Studies, which is headlined "The US 
- the eternal return of secrecy and conspiracy theory," Fukuyama 
highlights that "it is often said that everything changed since the 
September 11 attacks; however, the Bush administration has methods 
of facing long-standing national security issues that are based on 
exaggerating threats, concealing information and restraining 
liberties." 
 
2. OPINION PIECES 
 
- "Bush faces a new referendum" 
 
Hugo Alconada Mon, Washington-based correspondent for 
daily-of-record "La Nacion," writes (11/01) "Only six days  from US 
elections, the election debate is far from the future legislative 
agenda and much closer to the White House than Republicans would 
have liked, to the extent that elections have become a virtual 
referendum on President Bush, his administration, and above all 
Iraq. 
 
"... In contrast to the support the White House has had since 2001, 
now only 38 percent of voters say they still believe the invasion of 
Iraq was a good idea, while 61 percent believe Bush does not seem to 
have a clear plan to deal with the war." 
 
- "New voting machines are already a headache" 
 
Hinde Pomeraniec, on special assignment in Washington D.C for 
leading "Clarin," writes (11/01) "Mistrust prevails among experts 
and ordinary people regarding the new electronic voting machines, 
which will be used for the November 7 legislative elections here in 
the US. Fear of technological error adds to fear of fraud, a specter 
that is mostly roused by Democrats (who lost the last three 
elections) but based on evidence to which no one objects. 
 
"... According to a recent Pew Institute opinion survey published by 
the 'Time' magazine, 55 percent of Americans are registered to vote, 
but only 35 percent do it regularly and the remaining 20 percent do 
it intermittently. 
 
"... The truth is that a confusing system will be inaugurated on 
Tuesday, too sensitive to human error. Manipulation was also a 
factor when everything was on paper. The outcome of the upcoming 
elections will tell whether technology favors or limits fraud 
attempts." 
 
- "Republicans - much to lose" 
 
Daily-of-record "La Nacion" carries an opinion piece by Ruben M. 
Perina, Ph.D. in Political Science and International Relations, 
University of Pennsylvania, an Argentine who has lived in Washington 
D.C. since 1980 (11/01) "Next Tuesday, the US will elect one third 
of its senators and all of its representatives on Capitol Hill. 
These mid-term elections are important for various reasons. First of 
all, because this is the opportunity to debate the ongoing public 
policies on national and local political issues, among them, the 
so-called 'culture of corruption' in Washington, which has 
contributed to deteriorating the image of Congress, and as this is 
now controlled by the G.O.P., this party is the one with more to 
lose... 
 
"... Generally speaking, a Congress controlled by the President's 
political party tends to support the President's initiatives but as 
long as they do not violate the fundamental principles of 
independence. The Executive Branch's intransigence or abuse of power 
sooner or later leads even ruling party legislators to question the 
President's policy. Today we see this regarding the war and 
occupation of Iraq... On the other hand, a Congress dominated by 
Democrats will energetically oppose the current direction of policy 
on Iraq and will call for change. The swiftness and extent of the 
change will largely depend on the outcome of the elections but, even 
more important, on the ability of the new legislative leadership to 
build bipartisan consensus in the institution and with the 
Republican presidency. Congress cannot rule alone." 
 
- "New US Ambassador in Argentina" 
 
Radio America interviewed Argentine Ambassador to the US Jose 
 
Octavio Bordon (10/31) "Asked about the new US Ambassador to 
Argentina Anthony Wayne, Bordon said that 'Ambassador Anthony Wayne 
is a man with a long diplomatic career, who has been in charge of 
US-European ties for a long time and in charge of international 
economic relations for four years... And I think he was the second 
or third USG official who visited Argentina after President Kirchner 
took over'... Asked what agenda US Ambassador Wayne would promote in 
Argentina, Ambassador Bordon said that 'there are three main issues 
- the expansion of trade, which has increased in a balanced way and 
in which Argentina enjoys a small surplus... - we import capital 
goods from the US, elements for air transportation, all of which are 
related to Argentine investment and growth. We want to obtain 
greater access to US markets... The second topic is related to an 
increase in our foreign direct investment in the US. The third topic 
is scientific and technological cooperation. Then you have the 
traditional issues... But I would say that these are the main topics 
that should be especially targeted and that should be included in a 
more active and positive agenda between the two countries.'"
