@SVTRob,
He won't succeed. he is an ignorant bastard taking advantge of even more ignorant people. With his "populist" govt he manages to gain the support of the poor uneducated majority by promising wonders that he never delivers. Venezuela will see the thruth and bring him down, they have to, they have tried once. I sure hope they don't give up. I would hate to see Cuba happen all over again.
