clearly, the people in argentina they are very divided over the kirchner era. i would say half of the country believes this is the best thing that could lap to argentina and the other half says this is worst thing that could happen after the 2001 crisis. i believe cristina and nestor specifically are going to be remembered as reformers. some of the things they did very well, some of the things they still get a lot of criticism. however i believe that especially nestor is going to be remembered as somebody who brought a lot of positive changes to the country. cristina is going to be different. she managed to polarize the population, right, a year after being elected she managed to polarize society and it's been getting worse ever since. so i'm not sure that history is going to be as kind to her as it's going to be with her husband. however, if you look at her, some of her economic policies, i would say that at least when it comes to the economy people are going to be fond of some of her most popular measures. >> adrian bono thank you so much. >>> huge student pr
