Ulises Humala

Who is Ulises Humala?

Ulises Humala Tasso is a professor at the Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería and a Peruvian politician who ran unsuccessfully for president in the 2006 election on the Avanza País ticket. He was running against his brother, Ollanta Humala, and 18 other candidates. Ulises received 0.2% of the vote, coming in 14th place.

Like his brother Ollanta, Ulises Humala considers himself to be a nationalist. However, he claims to want to bring nationalism to all of Tawantinsuyo, not just modern-day Peru. He also considers the current 1993 constitution, produced in the "Democratic Constitutional Congress" after Alberto Fujimori's self-coup and during the Peruvian Constitutional Crisis of 1992, to be illegal.

One of his other brothers, Antauro Humala, is currently in prison for leading a failed military rebellion. The other brother, Ollanta Humala is the current President of Peru.
