Christian Democrat Party Of Chile
The Christian Democratic Party ( es, Partido Demócrata Cristiano, PDC) is a Christian democratic political party in Chile. There have been three Christian Democrat presidents in the past, Eduardo Frei Ruiz-Tagle, Patricio Aylwin, and Eduardo Frei Montalva.

In their latest "Ideological Congress", the Christian Democrats criticized Chile's current economic system and called for a shift toward a social ...
