PEOPLE, Page 64There Goes Rulin' Ruben
By MICHAEL QUINN
Singer RUBEN BLADES has conquered the Spanish-speaking
world with his mix of salsa and social consciousness, and won
over the rest of the globe with his movie roles. Now Blades
faces the toughest audience yet -- his native Panama, where last
month Blades began investigating a possible run for the
Panamanian presidency. While not formally declared, the
Harvard-trained lawyer surely notices the piddling popularity
of current President Guillermo Endara. Presidente Blades might
not be music to the ears of the U.S. State Department, however.
His song Tiburon compares interlopers in Latin America to a
marauding shark.
