So sad that a great leader has passed away. X
Please stop being an ignorant fool, please.Used the oil wealth to help the majority, not the few. Won 4 elections. Jimmy Carter who was with a team to over see the elections said, " if only every country had fair and honest elections, like Venezuela.
The daily beast as a reference. Ha. The word tosspot.

Get an education and then start saying how great he is, not the other way round.....
His political legacy is decidedly murky. While chavistas are quick to praise the regime's accomplishments—free education, free health care, reduced poverty, massive food and agricultural subsidies, a 93 percent literacy rate—the reality of day-to-day life in Venezuela tells a more troubling story. Caracas claims one of the world's highest murder rates and a steady drumbeat of kidnapping, carjacking, and home invasion. One of its most notorious landmarks, the unfinished 45-story Tower of David, is now home to 2,500 squatters, a monument to the bungled economy.
And then there's oil. Venezuela boasts the world's largest petroleum reserves, which enabled Chávez to launch one massive social program after another, few properly managed and nearly all kept afloat on petrodollars and the Comandante's sheer force of will.
Meanwhile, a U.K. nongovernment organization, Tax Justice Network, reported that about $400 billion in Venezuelan capital has fled to offshore banks.
When ever I meet him he always spoke highly of you.
