5. Certainly not those who would kill innocent people to try to oust a government

Which means that my heroes are not those who shot at protestors in the Caracazo, and certainly not Chávez and those other a-holes who supported him during the coup. You also forget to mention it was Rafael Caldera, the president who came before Chávez, who gave him amnesty for his actions, not the Venezuelan people. Certainly a mistake that Caldera will probably be most well-known for, since it resulted in getting the most corrupt figuredhead of our history getting elected and basically sending down Venezuela into the drain, which obviously you're not really aware of since you've never even lived most of your life in the country itself or speak the native language, like I do.
