ARGENTINE CANDIDATE CARRIO ATTENDS INDIAN CEREMONY IN BUENOS AIRES.
Argentine Deputy and Presidential candidate Elisa Carrio (2nd R) of the
Alternative for a Republic of Equals party (ARI), takes part in the
traditional Pachamama (Mother Earth) ceremony, an Indian highland
delighted at the prospect of prosperity, in Buenos Aires, April 15,
