...Chavez said what did concern him was the level of poverty of certain people in the United States, and he offered aid from his government to help with the well-being and health of the American people.One poster suggest that Chavez runs for U.S. president. Others congratulate him for pointing out U.S. poverty and offer to help. But, oddly enough!, there are few negative comments. In fact, after more than fifty comments, I only found one that was negative, and, after several deleted replies, that poster offered an explanation:
Chavez said that some citizens of that country could be enrolled in the VISTA medical program of Cuba, and he even spoke of offering a special program of direct gasoline assistance to poor communities.
"The level of poverty in the United States also worries us. We offer not only to cover 6 million people with Vista over the next ten years, but to train over 200,000 doctors over the 10 years. We will put them back into Vista," he said... (original source)
All I basically said in my first post was, Ill believe it when I see it.
