Do you think if Hugo Chavez was leader he could lift North Korea out of poverty and starvation?
Yes, I really do think he could get that ball rolling, impossible for him to wipe the problem out overnight but from small acorns…… =) The propaganda based vitriol slung at Chavez is born out of misinformation, he is a Bolivarian stylee visionary who uses education and empowerment of the populace as tools. It’ll be decades before Venezuela can compare to Western society on the basis of average living standards but that is clearly his aim, he’s made the start. Lol, there’s more opportunity for dissension in Venezuela than Britain or America where the average citizen could be compared to a sensually satiated rat in a cage. =) Chavez has a PROVEN 75% approval rating, statistics our politicians dare not even dream of. Consider too that he WAS democratically elected, then look at our own recent election debacles which our politicians in their hubris won’t allow impartial oversight of.
