Il cuore in frantumi
Hugo Chávez, il 3 novembre 2008:
Quiero un acercamiento con el negro, desde aquí que nosotros somos indígenas, negros, raza suramericana. Estoy preparado para sentarme y dialogar… espero que podamos, espero que entremos en una nueva etapa.
Barack Obama, nei giorni precedenti al suo insediamento:
Chávez had been a force that has interrupted progress in the region. We need to be firm when we see this news, that Venezuela is exporting terrorist activities or supporting malicious entities like the FARC.
Hugo Chávez, poco dopo:
Obama is following orders from dark forces inside the empire. If he doesn’t obey the orders of the empire, they’ll kill him.
