SHAME?! ARE YOU MAD! It should be a universal rule to NEVER elect someone into a life governing position. Power corrupts. |

Um, I don't think you know the difference between no term limit and life governing. Many other countries already have no term limits, including the US up until FDR. These countries include Aussie Prime Minister, Japanese Prime Minister, Canadian Prime Minister, Italian President, French President, and I'm sure there are more, I believe. |

I think anybody would want to be president for life...but, I dunno, this defeat could be a good thing too, he won't overstep his boots like FDR and Allende.

Of course anybody would want to if THEY are the president If it were me I would be immortal and cheat teh system Honestly,I really don't know what to think of Chavez.From what I have heard,he's an ass from comments he has said and what not. On another note,you hear about Putin apparently winning unfairly?Saw a bit of it on the news. |

Being president for life means he can't be voted out of office. Even if he could, he'd have so much power he'd be able to alter the constitution some way to stay in power. No term limit means you can run as many times as you want, you just need people to vote for you for however many elections.

That's what was being put into the constitution though, not dictator-for-life. |

I would also like to point out the other 35 amendments, which were meant to decentralize his power.
