I’m not sure if you have been following whats been going on down in Venezuela, but its somewhat of a crazy thought.  The citizens there are voting  to possibly amend their constitution  to allow Anti-American President Hugo Chavez to stay in power for life.  Hugo Chavez isn’t a person that we really would want to be in power in a country like Venezuela.  Granted they aren’t a major country as far as the world players go,  they still are in an area that stability is a must.

President Chavez has gone as far as calling President Bush, the devil.  This, itself, in today’s world really isn’t surprising, as it seems that a big group of nations and our own population aren’t the greatest fan of Bush.  Perhaps the world would be more stable with out Chavez as a leader,  perhaps we would be better with a new President here in America, the world doesn’t really know.  What we do know, is how quickly ill fated words can reach and start a wild fire.  In August of 2005, Christian broadcaster Pat Robertson,  stated that the US should assassinate  Chavez.  Chavez  viewed this as  an official  message of the American people, and the  US government has been trying to dig out of that mess since then.

Is this something so worry about?  I think it is.  Having a truly Anti-American leader in a part of the world that we need stability,  its slightly scary to me.  Having new leadership in Venezuela, would likely help the world be more safe. At least in my eyes.
