Abstract

This article is a descriptive and analytical text. The investigation of which the article is a product is about the presidential re-election in Colom- bia. That research began as an analysis of eighteen editorials published by the most important newspaper in Colombia: El Tiempo. The method of analysis was ACD (Critical Analysis of speech) by Teun A.
