If the people vote for him to bad, if someone else came into power most likley they would be corrupted by corporate influence exactly like what makes you come to these acustions and they would be back at square one. duh.
Again, please provide proof that he isn't cracking down on media and dissenters.
Wow, yeah, the people will vote for him *today*. What happens if he starts cracking down on them further, further reducing rights, becoming more unpopular, and still ruling because of his infinite presidency?
Then how do they remove him Steeple? Do they start a coup, where thousands die after he has killed him with his supremely controlled military?
The reason why you have term limits is exactly that, to eventually get rid of somebody who isn't popular anymore. Imagine if Bush instituted unlimited terms, we'd all be screwed! Even though he won in 2000 by democratic vote and 2004 by the same (both questionable) by pandering to the lower class' need for security and other needs, and pandering to the rich by tax cuts, he would not get voted again today (thankfully)
Chavez did the *same* thing, pandered to a particular interest to get voted in. Now he is going to use no term limits to grab total power and dictate to the Ven. people.
Now, I am sure you would support unlimited term for Bush, right? Obviously you support the will of the people, so in 2000, he had the will. If we lived by your f'd up logic, he would be president forever.
Thanks Steeple, you would have doomed us to an eternity of GW, just like you are supporting the doom of the Ven. people to an eternity of Chavez.
Yay for democracy.
I love, that just because I don't agree with you, that you try to label me as some neo-con oil lover. If you had some decent reading comprehension, you would see from my prior posts (and above) that I am anything but. I argue from a stance of logic, not parties, and I cannot stand our current wasteful energy policy and I would love for the oil companies to go out of business as we are all driving hybrid or EV while using solar, tidal, wind, and nuke/fusion.
You can try and minimize my logic by pigeonholing me, but all you are essentially doing is being as close minded as the people you despise.
