	Juan Bosch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Juan Emilio Bosch y Gaviño (30 June 1909, La Vega – 1 November 2001, Santo Domingo) was the first democratically elected president of the Dominican Republic after the assassination of dictator Rafael Leónidas Trujillo in 1961.
		Bosch returned following Trujillo's assassination in 1961 and was elected as the 41st president in December 20, 1962 running as the Dominican Revolutionary Party (PRD) candidate.
		Balaguer's candidacy was bolstered by fear of resurgent violence should Bosch win, as well as support from the powerful remains of the dictatorship of Rafael Trujillo (of which Balaguer was a lifelong supporter), conservative sectors including peasants, religious women, and businessmen.

		The recent Haitian crisis, dining which President Juan Bosch issued a call to the colors and thereby lengthened his souring inaugural honeymoon, was but another act in an old drama of recrimination which could sweep from the boards Bosch’s electoral promises of social and economic advances.
		Bosch negotiated the European short-term, high-interest money on a five-week pre-inaugural tour of the Continent because, as he put it, Alliance for Progress funds would be too stow in coming to create the large-scale employment which the country desperately needs.
		Bosch’s popularity rose sharply again at the prospect of a brief walk by Trujillo’s well-trained, well-equipped army into the Haitian capital, only 30 miles from the border dividing Hispaniola’s traditional enemies, who share a long history of mutual marauding, slaughter and conquest.

		Instead of being allowed to march, as so many other groups are regularly permitted, (like the Irish on St. Patrick's Day), the Anti-war activists were enclosed for miles, along First Avenue, in serial cattle pen-like enclosures, (mini-police-created-protest zones), which were patrolled by a horde of mostly angry cops, many on foot, and some on horseback.
		Another even more unpleasant incident that made me think of Bosch's words was a rally for human rights, on Dec. 6, 2003, at York, PA. I had never seen so many armed, rough-looking policemen in my life, in one place and from so many different city, state and federal jurisdictions.
