Hugo Chavez
was elected president of Venezuela by a significant number of votes, which may
not be the best outcome in United States of America’s viewpoint. Chavez is a
dictator who often makes allies with America’s enemies. However, Venezuela has
succumbed to the situations that many South American countries are in: when
their president improves their living standards, they re-elect him. It doesn’t
matter that the president has a part in the corruption of his country’s economy
or that the president controls his country’s media. Aside from the United
States of America’s protests of his election, however, Chavez insures the
democracy of Venezuela and the protection of Venezuela from the imperialism of
the United States of America. South America created the Community of Latin
American and Caribbean States, a new hemisphere-wide organization, rather than
join the United States-dominated Organization of American States.
By
Chavez being re-elected, the Venezuelan people don’t have to worry about their
country falling victim to the imperialism of the United States under the bad judgment
of a new, inexperienced president. Chavez had gone through the trials and
tribulations it took to stand up against the United States of America. With
first-hand experience as president, there are no questions of his leadership in
defense of Venezuelan’s democracy. However, in regards to his corruption and
dictatorship within his own country, there is concern for the need of democracy
in those areas. Yet, with Chavez, the country of Venezuela will be able to deal
with their problems within their borders without the worry of having to fend
off persecutors from outside.
