I'm not blaming them at all. I was just curious how you felt about the fact that Venezuela, a country you seem to be very fond of, can only really exist as it is because of America, a country you seem the have a lot of contempt for.
No need to put words in my mouth, I never defended America or ignored the existence of slavery. Where'd this even come from?
So Venezuela ONLY exist because of America? Care to back that up with some facts?
Venezuela is only Americas 4th major supplier of oil, so if Chavez is so bad etc etc like the media here and former presidents have said, them why not just cut them off and stop buying oil from? Surely they will tumble if good ol Massa' isnt there? Right cause Venezuela doesn't export to anyone else? Cause the Chinese aren't about to become the biggest importers of Venezuelan oil
How about because we need them more than they need us?
Right now we get a little under a million barrels daily of oi from them , you think gas prices are bad now? and the economy is faltering now? What do you think would happen if a million barrels of oil all of a sudden stopped coming in here. Total collapse? No but it wouldn't be a pretty sight
But you see the Chavez and the people Venezuela are not like that, they won't put up a embargo knowing that it will cause chaos and suffering for others. You know what they do?
They offer FREE oil to poor black families here in Harlem

Nice quote from this article
Key U.S. political leaders sent an open letter to the petroleum industry requesting assistance in meeting the demand. CITGO was the only company to respond.
Where are the American oil company's?
Or how about this after that earthquake in Haiti, what did Chavez do, while US "aid" workers were caught abusing Haitian children
Chavez was writing off ALL of Haiti oil debt

I could go on and on, point of all this is that yea fine oil is there major export but again SO WHAT??, he is taking that oil revenue and using it do do right by his people and millions of others
Mean while we out here winning hearts & minds
