Although the Chavista (may he rest in peace) is dead, he lives incarnate. His hand picked mule, Nicolas Maduro will not accept revolution’s  death. Therefore, he has brought in the enforcers, the Tonton Macoutes to do what the Chavista would do, RULE BY FORCE. An old saying in Russia goes like this, the election will be held tomorrow, the results will be known today.

Venezuela, which holds the world’s largest oil reserves, has been hit by soaring violence, galloping inflation and food shortages under embattled president Nicolás Maduro, who leads the ruling socialist party (PSUV). Last month’s electoral defeat was the party’s worst for 17 years — or since Mr Maduro’s late predecessor Hugo Chávez launched his socialist revolution.

Maduro could not accept the election result, so he is taking steps that will insure him remaining in power. We call upon Jimmie Carter to go to Venezuela and personally certify the defeat of Maduro. But don’t expect it to happen, Carter is a Chavista. Right now we are in a waiting game; on Wednesday 112 members of the opposition MUD party will be sworn in defying the court order. This will set the stage for violence.
