    He is their elected President. He is not well liked because he took land from the wealthy people and gave it to the poor.

    He also has a lot of oil and he wants to distribute the wealth more equally. Chavez has helped in improving the lives of the most poverty stricken people in Venezuela.

    George Bush does not like him because he can't control him.

    Therefore he gets bad press in this Country.

    Mr Sceptic and Lou are so very very right.

    But maybe a people from Venezuela should answer your question because you can never trust the media these days.

    I think the only thing keeping his neck out of a noose are high oil prices. I think it's funny how we always have to hear saber-rattling from him any time oil prices take a dip. He better hope China doesn't go into a recession.

    The Venezuelan people seem to like him, which is more important than what I think of him, since I don't live in Venezuela.

    And he refuses to be a puppet of USA, which kind of explains why the American propaganda machine is working overtime on him.

    Dictator of a small South American country with a lot of oil under his butt, that's keeping him alive.

    Have you ever listened to his speeches? After the New Hampshire primary. RFKjr did do a commercial..a gas one...you make the call!!!! It is offly fishy to me...the whole whiskey, and gas thing going on in MASS. Romney pleads the fifth! We have plenty of friends in the world...Relying on him? No thanks!

    He would look really good 6 feet under the ground so in a million or so years it would be his butt making the oil...
