Revolutionize me II

So. Some South American country decides with a minuscule margin, not to let it's president run for another time in the office. But does this really change the way we see world around us? Though I definitely support the notions of liberty and democracy, every election is not a major turning point. International recognition is something opposition parties crave under all totalitarian regimes. One success along the way is not really that groundbreaking. Crying freedom and prosperity every time makes those same notions appear less valuable. It might be the man bites dog effect but it makes the next event seem less important.
