Who was Ceasar Chavez  actually working for???
440487
He wasn't working for anyone, he was doing work FOR everyone.  I had the great pleasure of working beside him in the early 70's & all of the politicians kept trying to bribe him with large amounts of money, but he just said NO because he knew that by remaining humble and spiritually connected that he could make more of a connection with the people & the people could make more of a connection with him.  I think it was the Union involvment that was eventually his weak point because he thought he was doing a good thing & he had no idea who he was dealing with.  I know for a fact that he would have never wanted any celebrations used in connection to his name & he would of absolutely not approved of a street being named after him in L.A. or any other city.  If you want to better understand what has been labeled as an AGRICULTURAL MOVEMENT, you first must research ALL the areas of AGRICULTURE.  The Throughbred Horseracing Industry is a large part of agriculture & no one ever mentions this in any of their articles.  Why???If the American people knew what really went on in the backlot of the racetrack they would see that slavery has not gone away in our country, the color of the slaves have changed from black to brown.

Sadly, in Venezuela, it seems you can do a lot except think much about the elections.\nThe oposition (or at least most of it) seems to have been able to agree in one candidacy (that of Rosales), and he's the strongest candidate against Hugo Chavez, who's like Forrest Gump (he'll keep on running until he wants to stop).\nNow, for the rest, it is very imprecise. The opinions and polls will change drastically depending on the people around you. "Chavez will win again", "Rosales will win".\nIn Venezuela no one seems to be objective: not the media, not the speakers. So you really don't have a clue of things. Not even much of what you see on TV because everyone has a side and they defend it sword in hand.\nRosales seems to gather the most people, at least as far as public manifestations and walks goes. Chavez has lost a bit of drive regarding this. Is not working for him now. He's focusing on "love" and an impressive ad campaign based on what he's done for "love" of the country. It is quite impresive to study.\nMaking things worst: very few people believe in the voting institutions, because they have been partialized and government controlled. So... is like "hope for the blind".\nIt is confusing.\nBut I guess the general perspective is: this is another oportunity. Another chance. To do what? We'll have to see.\n\nGoodluck!

its a question by ariana huffington, do you really care?!  she's so flippen crazy, might as well be ann coulter asking it.  but if you must know, i think it was "what story of the past year is the most undercovered by the press?" or something along those lines.

He is just using the poor to get more control over the country and more power for himself.  He will cause much damage to the economic structure of Venezuela and its reputation with the world.

I've been following Chavez Jr's career for the past couple of years, and have been impressed by his maturity in the ring. However, he hasn't seemed to have learned very much, and I sometimes wonder just how much further he can advance as a professional boxer. \n\nJulito's fight last December against Carlos Molina ended in a draw, and his rematch with him next month (February 18th) will tell us definitely what we can expect from him in the future. My guess is that he will go remain undefeated for the rest of this year against slightly better opponents, but will inevitably get his first loss when he faces much tougher opposition sometime in 2007.

Fire them on the spot! Even if they are supporting illegal immigration, but are a legal U.S. citizen...they are still saying criminal activity against my country is ok. Why would I want someone with that mind-set working for my legitimate business? Hell no!

Castro is a communist.\nCastro stole billions in American assets when he took over.\nCastro tried to place nuclear armed missiles 90 miles from our shores\nCastro emptied his prisons and sent the refuse to our shores during the Maribel boat lift\nCastro actively spread communism to Africa and South America\nCastro invaded Grenada\nCastro gave material support to Manuel Noriega\n\nDo I need to go on?

Yes, they've already done it.  The economic hit men have killed numerous central and south American politicans in the name of oil.  \n\nDo i think he'll out and out order a hit or go to war?  No.  Do i think chavez will die in an "accidental" plane crash if he failes to cooperate?  Yes.

Not that directly.\nCITGO its a company owned by PDVSA (Petróleos de Venezuela), and PDVSA is owned by all venezuelans (its a publuc company) and managed by goverment.

Not sure of the question here, but...\n\nPolitics is corrupt?...well, no. But some POLITICIANS are certainly corrupt...in my personal opinion the current US administration is the most corrupt since the well documented corruption of the Nixon years.\n\nGROWING-UP nation as well?...what does THAT mean?\n\nIf you are implying that the governments of 3rd world countries have a worse reputation for corruption, well...yes.\nBut we are starting to see genuine 'peoples' leaders emerging in some countries. (Venezuela's Chavez is a good example.)\n\nChavez, since being elected, has, in a sense, "decorrupted" his country by returning ownership of the natural resources to the locals, rather than the US corporations that were raping and plundering the economy, sharing with a select few only.\n\nFor putting his people's needs above those of the multi-national (mostly US owned) corporations, Chavez has been subjected to a string of lies and abuse from the White House and its cronies, including the now famous quote from "Christian" Pat Robetson that "someone should assassinate him" (Chavez)\nSo much for "Thou shalt not kill", let alone "Do unto others"...in my opinion anyone who preaches violence toward any living human is NOT a man of God.\n\nHe even managed to survive a US backed coup attempt because the people came onto the streets in the hundreds of thousands and stood up to the army, and bravely persuaded them not to attack their own people to support rich foreigners...and amazingly, the army listened, for they could see themselves that Chavez is a good man, doing good for ALL the people of Venezuela, not just the elite.\n\nAnd THAT, is where I see "dignity implied"...where the 3rd world governments are standing up to the corruption imposed on them by their powerful and VERY corrupt neighbor to the north.\nHere are some links...just a few of the dozens available that tell more than I can here.

Because Chavez doesn't help the poor.  Chavez helps Chavez and that's it.

who did it? well it wasnt the butler in the hallway wilh a candlestick. how many different arab leaders are there in U.A.E.?i wouldnt know.however, it had to be a terrorist group of the arab world. look at the names listed they were all arabic.as for the official story, what we read and saw on the tube was as official as it gets.information concerning this tragic day possibly was edited just to be on the safe side. what i mean is that the story probably had more to it than what was said ,but with the turmoil in the world today, the increasing price of oil and fingers pointed at everyone, why say anything to start trouble? personally i dont think our country is the most advanced in defense or technology.our computers are made up of japans experts and as far as i know our defense systems are made with the same technology. i think there a a few small nations in the world that have come a long way as we have but secrets must be kept.hopefully im wrong but,i have read and surfed the web,i had found many items of interest that are questionable.im not a trouble maker and i think any information gotten will be sufficient enough to sustain my curiosity. i served during vietnam and i enlisted and would do it again. this country is my home and i was proud to serve.

Manipulating the politics of other countries is what has caused hatred for the U.S. in the Arab and Muslim countries, do you want it to spread further in the Americas now?\n\nHugo Chavez's attitudes are more in line with nearly 70% of the U.S. population now, so I think you are way off track suggesting such a thing.  \n\nRemember, "absolute power corrupts absolutely!" How about using our power for some good?"

In Venezuela, since Chavez is in power, people have started to loose many rights, consistently. Even the right to vote and change presidents is at risk if chavez is reelected (wich i believe is difficult to happen if elections are fair and clean). If you go to a job interview, they ask you if you dissent the president, as a condition to get the job, causing that only the ignorant and ass kissers get jobs in many public institutions. In Education, The grade system has been eliminated, everybody has the right to pass!!. So students don´t study anymore. They know they will graduate, cause its illegal if any teacher flunk them. In Criminality and National Security, now you usually dont go to jail, if your crime favors the regime: murderers have walked free, cause they killed chavez oposers, and not the people in favor of chavez. Kidnappings numbers have risen over 400%, and there have been 100,000 violent deaths since chavez got to power. (Wich is an enormous number for a small country with a small population). Drug dealers and criminals from other countries walk around Venezuela.. If we talk about economy, Chavez has received more money than aproximately the sum all of the previous governments(8 in 40 years) in the history Venezuelans democracy!!!!!!. Still, he devalued the currency, made illegal to have american $ without selling them to the government. Made illegal for people to travel overseas with more than 4000$, when people returns to Venezuela, they have to sell their money (US$) to the government in exchange for devalued Bolivares. He received aprox. 500,000,000,000 of US$, what means about 1,100,000,000,000,000 Bolivares, and the social plans he talks about so much worth less than 1% of that money. Where is the F*** Money?? He is the richest man on earth now. Bought a jet, that makes the air force one look like trash, has a budget of aprox. 1million US$ for drinks, and another million for Suits.He travels all around the world, almost all year long, with hundreds or thousands of people, in a constant five star all included luxury vacation, and pays for propaganda in dozens of countries. That propaganda has reached some people outside venezuela... inside?? not much. \n\nA Free Venezuelan... (Against all odds)
