Keiko Fujimori could run for Peru’s next president after supporters of her father created a new political party. Ex-president Alberto Fujimori faces up to 30 years in jail over human rights abuses during his mandate, yet his backers hope that a new political faction would help clear his name: "For seven years, some of the media and several political sectors have already sentenced Alberto Fujimori. It is important for us to show how much people support him and we will do it with democratic weapons," said Congresswoman Keiko Fujimori, Alberto Fujimori's daughter...
"We are going to collect one million signatures throughout the next year and prove that people do not agree with the lynching of Alberto Fujimori that is taking place," affirmed Keiko.
So far Keiko has denied running for president in 2011. However, she is a very popular figure in Peru as evidenced by her getting the highest vote nationwide in 2006 legislative elections.

Sr. Presidente Alberto Fujimori e hija Keiko. Reciban un cordial saludo de solidaridad desde los EEUU. Sigan adelante en su lucha para comprobar su inocencia.
Cuenten con un amigo más que los apoya en lo absoluto.
Julio desde Arizona caliente!!
Por favor, JULIO , O AGOSTO , PROBABLEMENTE EL CALOR DE ARIZONA TE TIENE LOS CRITERIOS Y LA MEMORIA POCO CLARA.
POR OTRO LADO
"Cuenten con un amigo más que los apoya en lo absoluto" ¿QUE QUIERE DECIR?
* incondicionalmente o solidario pero en ABSOLUTO ...NO TIENE SENTIDO
SETIEMBRE
Septiembre o Octubre, gracias por la aclaracion a mi comentario. Es facil criticar sin poner tu nombre y tu origen. Te sobra criterio pero creo que te faltan los huevos, no??
Julio
pathetic the daughter of fujimori got an education in the U.S payed by peruvian tax payers. If she really has some sense of decency she should give her salary as a congresswoman to charity or some literacy program. In the other hand Fujimori was not a bad president but a horrible one not only did he ruined Peru's economy, but also Latin American prestige and Japanese heritage.
