in that case, the evil one would be the tyrant that succeeded trujillo and prevented the dominican people from a successful democratic transition when the window of opportunity was there.

And then you'll have another, and another, ad infinitum, because you and Africaida don't get the fact that one does nothing by eliminating a tyrant if the societal conditions (in our case, ancestral disorder) that gave rise to him still remain in place. It's not a matter of individuals, but of a whole system, or rather, non-system. The phrase "muerto el perro, se acabó la rabia" doesn't hold water in this case, and the reality of the country after the tyrant's death has been the best proof of this.
