    No, Brasshole, it was Charles Manson who killed Bolívar, using a modified kryptonite suppository. Please study your history more closely.

    Your history is a fake: watch the Netflix: El Libertador. This is a example!

    : El Libertador
    Was this a film, or a documentary,

    if it was a film, then don't believe it,
    if it was a documentary then tell us who killed him.

    Almagro, the argie rent-boy looks like he may have a pair after all!

    I would imagine 'the whole world' wants MADuro to go where Chubby went: dead.

    You must be the most gullible troll in this forum. You saw a film, so it must be true. What a moron !

    A quote from an article reviewing the film
    On that note, something that did catch my attention was Bolívar’s death. The historically accepted version of his death is that after his 1828 assassination attempt and fall-off in political popularity, he died in Santa Marta from tuberculosis before he could set sail to Europe to live out his days. But in the film, his death is portrayed very differently. While there is mention of the tuberculosis, the film delves into the theory that Bolívar was actually assassinated by his enemies in Nueva Granada and his illness was just a cover-up.

    @1 Brasileiro

    What a moron, you are!

    Why don't you read a biography of Bolívar to discover the truth?

    “Durante los meses que precedieron a su muerte, el Libertador había de evocar constantemente su amarga derrota política. Recordaba a su último amor, Manuela Sáenz, que al salvarle la vida en el atentado del 25 de septiembre de 1828 se había ganado el título de «Libertadora del Libertador»; también evocaba otros amores y otros atentados. Lloraba la muerte de Sucre, el fiel lugarteniente asesinado el 4 de junio de 1830 en Berruecos; recordaba y deliraba, y así murió, solo y defenestrado de los territorios que había liberado, por causa de una hemoptisis, en la Quinta San Pedro Alejandrino, el 17 de diciembre de 1830. En 1842 el gobierno de Venezuela decidió trasladar los restos de Bolívar, según su último deseo. Desde entonces, su legado ha devenido mito y veneración como fundador de la patria.”

    Besides, what has December 1830 got to do with may 2016.

    Has anyone noticed that MadNicky doesn't wave the little blue book of the constitution around anymore? Guess he doesn't need that bit of trash remembered by the people of the “democracy”. He certainly doesn't think it is relevant. The national assembly has become a non-entity.
    And as for the US trying to get rid of his commie government, seems to me that he is doing the job himself. The country is shit-ass broke and the people of their commie paradise are starving to death.

    Just a reminder of what I posted back in 2014 about this fanatical Chavista, 'La Rodiguez', for it is she...

    Here is how it works in Venezuela:
    ”After so many years, few things chavistas throw our way make us do a double take. This one did: Delcy Rodríguez, Nicolás Maduro’s former minister of Communications, the über-chavista, radical sister of equally über-chavista mayor of Libertador (Caracas) Jorge Rodríguez, wants to be … a justice in the nation’s highest court!
    Never mind the fact that she is a blatantly partisan choice (surprisingly, our Constitution doesn’t say that justices have to be non-partisan). As far as I know, she is not qualified to be a justice. She’s a lawyer, and she got some graduate degree in France, but has she ever judged anything in her life? All her work has been in the public sector, defending the revolution from enemies near and wide.

    Here she is, calling people who protest in the streets “terrorists.” There she was, calling striking SIDOR workers “guarimberos.” People who disagree with the government are at the service “of the empire.” And with regards to free speech? Here she is, justifying the government’s censorship of news organization NTN24.

    All of Delcy Rodríguez’s public life has been one long justification for the wretched excesses of the Revolution. Very little of it has to do with the law, and all of it has to do with politics.”

    And now look at her!

    The End is Nigh! (I hope and pray!)
