This is the New Spanish Candidate for President's campaign poster. Albert Rivera.
I didn't think it was wrong for this site - its posted all over the streets over there.
Why can't we have candidates like this. It would make the election so much more interesting.
Of course we get Mark Foley - and who in their right mind would want to see him like this - other than a 16 year old.

Can one be taken seriously after posing like that?
Anyway, for those who don't speak Spanish, here's a rough translation:
Ha nacido tu partido
(Your party has been born)
"Solo nos importan las personas"
(Only the people concern us)
No nos importa donde naciste.
(It doesn't matter to us where you were born.)
No nos importa la lengua que hablas.
(It doesn't matter to us what language you speak.)
No nos importa que ropa vistes.*
(It doesn't matter to us what type of clothes you wear.)
Nos importa tu.
(Only you matter to us.)
*I think this should be his slogan.

The first post features a campaign ad with the candidate completely nude, save for his hands discreetly covering his genitals.
The second one is of an Asian chick in pink and a pillbox hat (a la Jackie Kennedy) exposing her pink-bra clad bosoms.

Yeah, I can't see them either. But, I googled ALbert Rivera and...
And I found a translation of the text...
YOUR PARTY HAS BEEN BORN
"Our single concern is the people"
Albert Rivera, Presidential candidate... etc.
I have one question... WHY?!?!
That's just - weird.

Its not weird to me. My question is, why the hands? They're covering the best part.
Odds are he would make a better US president than that evil, corrupt chimp we have.

*Applauds*
I don't know any spanish but I know it's like Latin so i used my experience of Latin. I didn't 'find it'. That's kinda why i didn't translate the whole lot, I couldn't figure out the little bits. Nevermind.
