If you had to live in one NON WHITE country in the world...

A man who is transforming the country with tremendous courage and integrity. Aside from that, Japan would be an interesting place to live I feel. I should add to that Turkey also

Venezuela is a nice country, but your perceptions of Chaves are off the mark. I was there once. The only thing venezuela has going for it are drop dead goregous women that are desperate for any man. They have no money, no jobs available to them, and president that is sendng them back in time.
When I was in venezuela, Chavez was not well liked. In fact, Chavez uses Bush, like Bush uses 9/11. He uses it to manipulate the voters.
What good does Chaves do his country by bitching about Bush? None. But it resonates politically with the more ignorant in the country. This was the views expressed to me by many venezuelans, and by foreign policy magazine.
Chavez targets the largest demographic in Venezuela. The poor. But in doing so, he's only working to hold political power. He wants to become president for life. He's loved by the poor, so of course he can parade around like a hero. But what good things has he really done?

first u say that chavez targets the poor that u admit is the largest demographic. then u say they love him. but then u say he does nothing for them. so are the poor of venezuela brainwashed fucks who just follw their leader for no damn reason (good mornin america!) or perhaps they are actually benefittin from chavez policies?
from an elite business point of view, the economy could be much better run. although some would say the nationalization and social program funding increases are minor hiccups that the country has to deal with.
i agree with you on the women tip. ive been with several venezuelan women...well only 2. but both get 2 blunts up

He meets the public on a face to face basis, regardless of his motives he is ploughing in mass investment into venezeula. literacy rates have improved dramatically. He has raised the slave minimum wage of venezeula, in an oil deal he has with cuba he sends physicians into the poorest neighbourhoods of venezeula. He encourages criticism, he encourages free speech, he is brave, he could have been killed when he was kidnapped. He is a genuine patriot you can tell that by the way he so passionately encourages people to learn the constition to defend their rights.
Compare that to the United States, the medical bills are astronomical, you have a president who was installed into power through election fraud. Neocons have actually used the term insurgents to describes dissenting americans. Look at the way in which the people in new orleans were deliberately abandoned look at fema deliberately blocking supplies from getting through, all documented. Compare and contrast chavez's line with that of Bush who described the constitution as a piece of paper. the laughable and transparents heroic mccains amendments to a legal framework for torture. The blatant violations of the consitution, the police state mentality which is swooping upon europe but particularly America.
He is hated by the wealthy because the country's wealth has been in the hands of a very small group of people for so long and they can see their wealth under threat from this redistribution, from this man who actually gives a shit about the poorest. They do not like that one bit, they do not like their power and influence being put under threat, before Chavez they were very happy with their relationship with the U.S because the status quo was maintained.

What a load of bullshit.
virtuoso:
If you are dismissing that as bullshit, then you must really have your head in the clouds.! In fact I didnt really delve particularly deeply into your question and those comments were some of the lighter ones I could have used, there is not one thing within that, that isnt factual,
