Hugo Chavez’s president-for-life bid defeated
Frankly this one took the Chief by surprise. Not the feelings of the people of Venezuela, but the admission by the Chavez regime that they actually lost the vote.
President Hugo Chavez was narrowly defeated today in a referendum on his wish to run for re-election as President of Venezuela indefinitely.
Voters said “no” by 51 per cent to 49 per cent to reforms that would have, among other things, freed him from presidential term limits, scrapped the autonomy of the central bank and given him control over foreign currency reserves, swelled by soaring oil revenues.
One has to fear that Chavez, like Dracula, will be back for another try…but for now at least, the news is better.
I would like to comment on Mr.Chavez’s defeat.This the best grace that God gave them.Now they should start working on finding a really good person to lead the country,otherwise he is going to play another dirty
trick on the Venezuelan people .
Mr. Chavez belongs in jail exactly the way he had the venezuelans in jail
and mental difficulties. The wealth of the country should fall in the hands
of people who really love their country .
