Some expert. Chavez has been in power since 1998. Want to guess

oil prices were then? You may not like him. I don't particularly,
but
he has won 3 elections. Somebody must like him.
It's easy to win an election when your opponents are totally
powerless.

Or dead.
Huh? His opponents are the Venezuelan fat cats, and landed gentry,
hardly powerless. However, they lost at the polls. Chavez has won
three elections with an average of 60% of the vote. As I said, I
don't particularly care for the man. Although, I do enjoy how he is
able to tweak the nose of our current President.
Unless the new President embraces Hugo and Raul, Fidel's little
brother, he will end up getting his nose tweaked too.

Can anyone give me a decent excuse why we still have the embargo against
Cuba? Because the south florida cubans are a strong voting block and our
politician are **** scared of them? Cause daddy hated them? Cause
they're commies?
The last doesn't hold water with the way we cuddle up to the China.

Yeah, Castro nationalized many US and Cuban owned companies in Cuba.

Naw, we've been crapped on worse than that and gone back for more.
I think that if we lifted the embargo and allowed green backs to flood in,
communism would fade away.......

It didn't in Venezuela.
