In Argentina, the wife of President Nestor Kirchner has announced she’ll run as a candidate in Argentina’s presidential election later this year. Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner will run in place of her husband, who is not seeking a second term. In an interview last week, Nestor Kirchner said he is willing to become Argentina’s “first gentleman.”
Argentine President Nestor Kirchner: “Whether someone is president or first lady — or first gentleman, as some say — what does it matter? What matters is that Argentina goes ahead in its process of change. We have the men and women to continue transforming Argentina.”
