You know Hitler was also democratically elected, and do you know the Elections committee in Venezuela is practically ruled by the Government?, and did you know elections in Venezuela are electronically counted? and did you know that we all asked for the votes to be recounted manually and the boxes disappeared under government custody? And anyone who takes out all news channels and communication sources can pretty much be called a dictator. So read a bit more inform yourself and then you can make an accurate statement. Nothing personal, I'm just tired of people not knowing what's really happening and creating their own opinions because they "liked" Chavez because he was against Bush, used as a propaganda while selling a big chunk of Venezuela's oil to the US.Just saying. Anyway the discussion is if you take down news channels for no reasons and start blocking internet access to information sources you are a dictator, period. Protesters are demanding freedom of speech as they killed for the same reason.
