Bolivar would of fought to the death to stop Chavez

Why Chavez would get to do the opening to this book is beyond me. Bolivar fought tooth and nail for individual freedoms and would of been violently opposed to Chavismo.

However, it is a great insight to hear direct writings from Bolivar and is amazing to see how much he took from Thomas Payne and Adam Smith and then built on those ideas with his own views for South America.
