There was no middle class revolt against Chavez. There was a well funded CIA sponsored attempt to unseat the popularly elected Chavez by force and fraud and disinformation. All of these attempts failed as Chavez is quite popular both with the poor and the miniscule middle class, but not with the elites, who are quite upset at not being allowed to pillage Venezuela as much as they would like to.
In your case you can rest assured that I will never be spouting off about the intelligensia.
