This is the fifth discussion board. You should give a brief essay-type response (about two paragraphs) to the question below. You need to include at least one citation (APA or Chicago style) to back up any claims you make on your argument.

Fully answering the prompt and including at least one citation accounts for 0.5 points, and writing your argument using correct spelling and grammar, as well as showing respect toward your classmates accounts for another 0.5 points. The remaining 4 points are related to how informed and well-constructed your argument is. When writing your response, do not include a citation just for the sake of doing it. You have to make sure that the citation is well-integrated into your argument.

If you had to choose between a parliamentary, a presidential, or a semi-presidential political system for a large Latin American country, which one would you choose? Why would you choose this system?
