101. As an American, I could not find myself in a position to support Chavez

This is compounded by the fact that I grew up in Miami where Chavez and Castro are considered modern-day tyrants. It's just not done. It's nothing personal. There are certain world leaders you can't express public sympathy for. It's not wise. And some of what I said about Chavez, such as the fact that he is today's Nasser and that he is currently a dictator (albeit elected), aren't exactly false.
