Thread: Chavez moves on

Finally, I'm perplexed at the deafening silence surrounding this little item, which is by far the most unsettling aspect of Chavez' rule:

Chavez Seeks `Indefinite' Term as Venezuelan Leader

By Peter Wilson and Alex Kennedy

Sept. 1 (Bloomberg) -- Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, who is running for re-election in December, said he would call a referendum in 2010 to change the constitution, allowing him to hold office without any term limit.

``If the majority of the people say yes, we'll have to change the constitution so that re-election in Venezuela will be indefinite,'' Chavez, 52, said in a televised speech in Caracas before tens of thousands of red-shirted supporters. ``The people will decide.'' Chavez would have to step down in 2013 under the current constitution if he wins in December.

I presume Chavez' apologists welcome "indefinite" rule?
