In the matter of ideologies, chavistas I know were trying to defend this project saying for example that the word socialism was not even used in any article. The devil is in the details, everybody knows that. Art. 12 states "La educación ambiental, la enseñanza del idioma castellano, la historia y la geografía de Venezuela. Así como los principios del Ideario Bolivariano son de obligatoria cumplimiento, tanto en las instituciones oficiales como privadas"

Now who knows what this "ideario Bolivariano" really is? I didn't know so I looked for information.....the things I found, I didn't like, it seems like a mixture of different things where of course marxism, socialism and such play a role..... two things I found:

A document explaining the "philosophy" which is in a government site:

and incredibly a FARC propaganda:

Are these new laws really valid? seeing the way they are being made, I wouldn't think so! :/

I wrote yesterday a reply which never appeared, even though I also tried using different browsers...what's the matter with that?

Anyways, besides what you already pointed out, amieres, there is the matter of what's stated in the link....a better (in the sense of imparciality) link would be:
http://www.sipiapa.org/v4/index.php?page=cont_comunicados&seccion=detalles&id=769&idioma=sp

It seems, the attackers were never discovered (The revolution's efficiency) and the people who accused the opposition were some "diputados nacionales" and Giancarlo Di Martino (Surprise Surprise).

Not convincing at all! the PSF should try again!

More on the very problematic Gallup Poll - this time it is the new one:

http://www1.voanews.com/spanish/news/latin-america/Honduras-pais-dividido-golpe-estado-zelaya-50408857.html (with an Interview to Gallup's president)

At the end nobody had the whole Poll - for one reason or another........Everybody was right, showing that black and white situations are rarely present in real life...more in this Honduras case
greetings

Hey, Actually after having looked for the original Poll results, I haven't found anything but the two contradicting reports, the first one (by Mr. Miranda) being the most repeated. The Gallup page does have one Poll for Honduras dated September 2008. This Poll looks more like the second report, but that's it --> 47% thought they were not heading to a better democracy, 29% thought they were heading to a coup d'stat - which Gallup claims is a rather large % in Latin America. Hondurans also thought in 2008 that the government and foreign governments were responsible for Honduras's unstability (50% and 41%, respectively). It is all very interesting, but it is not the Poll being mentioned here. "La Prensa" on online doesn't have the Poll neither!....:/
