14. I hope so! Politicians come and go but, the people in Venezuela
deserve a break. They've been ripped off for so damn long. One of the most moving parts of that film about the coup is when a blue collar worker takes his constitution out of his back pocket and shakes it right at the camera, and says, "I can read this now and my CONSTITUTION says THIS IS ILLEGAL". He was doing a Senator Byrd impression! For those people, I hope things go well.
