Michelle Bachelet
By Chris Pelzel
Verónica Michelle Bachelet Jeria
Husband.
Alberto Bachelet
Divorced mother of 3.
Rough start
Soon after taking office Bachelet
faced some hard times. Many of
Chile’s students were dissatisfied with
the public education system and they
had massive protests. She saw her
approval rating plummet during the
first half of her presidency. However
because of her social programs and
stimulus package to create jobs her
numbers rose sharply the second half
of her presidency. Much of that had to
do with her reduction of poverty and
improving early childhood education.
First Term comes to an end.
Because of Chile's constitution Michelle was not allowed to run for a
consecutive term. She was credited with reducing poverity and improving early
childhood education.
