Comment
editThis article is hands down the worst one ever written on Wikipedia. Has this been edited since 2005?
Comment
editAlongside the ommisions that others have noted, the language in this article is strangely flattering in places. Also statements such as "his ideas are now revered as innovative" with a reference from 1972 - there has been quite a bit of reassessment of Sarmiento since then!
Comment
editWhy is there absolutely no mention of Sarmiento's racist ideology in his call for the extermination of the gaucho in his book Facundo. I think that to present Sarmiento without mentioning his underlying feelings towards the indigenous and rural gaucho is not accurate historically
Comment
editYes. It was more than a disdain for the Indians and Gauchos. He was a rather perverse man who gloated over the possibility of allowing orphans to simply die because they were a burden on the state. I have no time right now as I'm working on my master's but I beg of you guys to edit this entry, anyone with some degree of integrity. You are correct that this entry is wildly inaccurate given the weight of what is omitted.
This was written by a British man, a very brief article. There are better sources in Spanish language. It would really help if someone were able to find and cite his remarks about the aforementioned orphans, as well as the Gauchos and Indians on this wiki.

editshouldn't there be a reference to his racist positions and the decisive role it played in the history of the black population in the country?? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afro_Argentine#Domingo_F._Sarmiento —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.59.207.210 (talk • contribs) 08:04, 10 May 2010

Sarmiento in Brazil
editThere is a gap in Sarmiento's biography: the time he spent in Petrópolis, Brazil, after the fall of Rosas in 1852. In there he became a close friend of Emperor Dom Pedro II, which would have as consequence the good relations that their both countries would share until 1889. Also, the picture of him in military uniform was not taken after Caseros, but in Petrópolis: he is wearing the medal of the Brazilian Order of Southern Cross given by the Emperor to him. For a source, see Platine War. --Lecen (talk) 14:24, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
