Amado Boudou, 47, is currently Economy Minister but appears on track to be elected in October...as a rock and roll vice-president.
President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, aka CFK...was criticised for choosing Boudou as running mate...because of his rock and roll lifestyle complete with Harley-Davidson moto.
But a preliminary vote recently gave the CFK/Boudou combo close to a mandate...with 50% of the vote.
