I don't know why, but if I had to take a guess, it would probably have to do with the fact that the US is history's greatest empire, with extreme hegemony and influence over many countries in the world, especially your own. There is no balance, and especially not total balance. I guess he doesn't want Venezuela to be another US pawn. :S Then again, we know how countries like that end up, especially if it's in one the world's most important strategic regions (Iraq 1991-2012). | ||

Agreed. He will join South American revolutionists league of legends... | ||

Nah, the British empire at its height was a far greater beast. A very good book on the failing of Americas empire is Incoherent Empire by Michael Mann: Incoherent Empire | ||

In 30 days there is supposed to be a new election, probably between Nicolás Maduro, the acting president, and Henrique Capriles Radonski, who fought a tough campaign against Chavez last time. Should be a tremendous battle. Frankly, I think it will be a landslide in favor of Maduro. The question is: will Chavez be an everlasting ghost in venezuelan politics, akin to Peron in Argentina? | ||
