This is a Democratic site fyi where the Far Right used to never be popular. But we've seen an increase in Right Wing support in Latin America over the past few years.

I have friends in Venezuela who fully support Chavez and disagree with your assessment completely. They are determined that their country will never again end up in the hands of the Western Backed Right Wing who will return it to the poverty and illiteracy it experience before Chavez was elected.

You must really be upset at how popular Chavez is with the people of Venezuela who do actually live there.

Just so you know, we are very good at detecting Right Wing propaganda here. We have had lots of experience with it in this country also.
