Fidel Castro was born on August 13, 1926. He's 79 years old, pushing 80 by August.\nGaddafi was born in 1942.

Yes, Argentina used to have a larger economy than Canada until Peronism came along. I guess people always think their problems with be solved if the "right" leader comes along. I think it's fair to say there are a lot of parallels with Chavez.

If Blair carried out what he said he was going to do in 1996 when he got elected then yes.  But as people find out the longer you are in power the more corrupt you become so the longer he stays in power the worse his legacy becomes.  Proof of this statement is found when you look at Margaret Thatcher.  Has she got a good legacy now that she has gone. Her early work yes but her later work no.  The proposal I have is that PMs should have one maximum term and if they do good great if not then their out anyway.  To answer your second question he has done good in some parts of it but the question is can you tell if they would have happened anyway.  Blair has damaged it in most cases created more bureaucracy, more PC terms, more crime, less means to tackle the causes of crime.  I could go on but I'll bore you to death.  To compare Bush with Blair is no comparrison different political cultures.
