Won re-election in Venezuela for another 6 years. Strong support from voters on the receiving end of Socialist government hand outs funded by oil revenues. Defeated a challenger who vowed to grow economy beyond oil, seek investments, and begin to end dependence on government support. Cuba gave a big sigh of relief. They were getting free oil for resale that would have stopped otherwise.
I cannot help but reflect on the similarities between voters in Venezuela and in the U.S. In both countries, a large per centage of voters are ignorant of any other issues besides a "Government Check" or an "ObamaPhone", not funded by oil but by taxes paid by those with a JOB. Sooner or later,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
