Oh, yes. He can be reelected until he dies. No question about it. They control the voting system and they have been "buying" votes for years (most public employees must vote for the government or else). Most of the 5 million people who have left the country were opposed to this government. Everything is against us now if this were to be decided in the polls.
People want new faces in government. People would like some decency back in the main office, people would like the president to stop being a charlatan promising castles in the air.
We have people who could do the job but I am not sure they will have access to power if we ever get rid of this pest. Those lobbying to substitute Maduro have shown some conflicting signs that makes me wonder how effectively they'll carry out a transition. I am not as naive as to think that nothing can be worse than this. I know this can be way worse if we get to an all out civil war, but it would be nice to just not see the faces of the same pricks who have ruined us and laugh in our faces all these years.

I am so saddened to hear this. I read so much good about Venezuelan culture here on steem, exemplar of positive attitudes.
So Guaido. What of him? Hand picked by the US. Would he be better do you think?
I'd like my country to stay out of your country's business. No country has been better off after we have interfered to my knowledge. Of course what do I mean by "better off"? I live in an American's bubble of privilege and safety, with the illusion that we have a government of by and for the people.
Is there a solution?
what a great thread this has been!
@owasco, @quillfire, @hlezama, you are masters of dialogue and intelligent discourse.
Girl, you go around reading long threads from a month ago?! I mean, it's cool, and it's nice to run into you like this,but how do you find that time? How do you even find the posts? xo
