The Latin American card is one of the Clinton’s main trump cards in the presidential campaign. As a candidate, she enjoys the exclusive support of immigrants from Latin America living in the United States. She promises to ease conditions for migrants and does not seek to build a high wall on the border with Mexico, contrary to the campaign promises made by Donald Trump. But does she really deserve the support of Hispanics? To answer this question, it is necessary to look at the previous work of Mrs. Clinton in Latin America.

At least as the US Secretary of State, she could improve relations with Latin America, but a reality check shows otherwise: Hillary Clinton was a firm supporter of rabid US imperialism. Successful and failed coups, death squads, drug wars and destabilization of entire countries, collaboration with corrupt politicians, and information war against people of Latin America, are Clinton's legacy in the region.

Supporting the death squads of Colombia

Clinton's family has a long history of supporting pro-US regimes in Columbia. One of the lasts steps of Bill Clinton's administration was $1.3 billion aid going mostly to the Colombian military. "The interpretation allowed the administration to dodge entirely any certification or waiver of human rights conditions attached to the aid", as American journalists Alexander Cockburn and Jeffrey St. Clair wrote on the subject. Thus. according to them, American funds went directly into the hands of infamous death squads, engaged in operations against political opponents of pro-US regimes...

Embracing the Honduras coup

During Hillary's Clinton stay in office she supported the outcome of the military coup in Honduras in 2009. In this military takeover, the legitimate president José Manuel Zelaya, who tried to bring his country closer to Venezuela and more independent from the US, was ousted. Tom Shannon, Assistant Secretary for Western Hemisphere Affairs from Clinton's State Department was in Honduras a week before the coup, consulting with the military and civilian groups later involved in it.

Even President Obama did not officially support the Honduras coup, but Clinton did. The systematic abuse of human rights, violence and suppression of opponents was the obvious result of the military takeover. However, Clinton lauded the illegitimate election of Porfirio Lobo, who had endorsed the coup and rewarded coup loyalists with top ministries, as a step towards "democracy".
