article shows how chavez will silence the opposition at any
cost... even at the expense of science... is that really a
democracy? by the way...it is written by science.... one of the
most (if not the most) respected scientific journal whose main
goal is to promote scientific advancement in the world!   By: m on the September 8th, 2009

it is irresponsible to support someone as powerful as hugo chavez
without knowing all the facts or at least giving the point of
view of those who oppose to him. i can't stand people who support
something just because it is labeled "so******t revolution"... it
doesn't make you seem more of an intellectual... it just makes
you look like an idiot!!!! it is a very romantic notion that in
real life can not be achieved... does it not worry you that
chavez is closing broadcasting stations and even firing
scientists?   By: M on the September 8th, 2009

mr. stone as well as the current us goverment should relate with
real people. it so sad that the stardoms from hollywood live in
the same world that our politicians. oliver stone and sean penn
and any hollywood star don't ahve any idea of the reality of
venezuela. they don't know what the real people is going
through. theere is no freedom in venezuela. if oliver stone is
a venezuelan and he wants to make a movie about the real
venezuela and have only one "one" disagrement with chavez, he
would never make a movie about the truth that he is living as a
venezuelan. if he wants to know exactly what is happening in
venezuela and make a movie about the real venzuela, he should
talk to the real people. he will probablt does not want to make
a movie about the truth because he wants to beleive that
so******m is the amswer and chavez is his hero. i am from peru
and i am so proud to be an american citizen and i love its
history and my incas history too. i work hard everyday to pay
for my house and for the future of my children and i don't
appreciate these hollywood starts making movies about a dictator.
when i was in peru i was staying late to see the oscars and i
was so happy to see this group of talented actors and directors.
now, i only enjoy some movies and some directors. all these
heores from the past are gone. i am more selective before i watch
a movie.   By: martha cohen on the September 7th, 2009

some coments about mr stone said about chavez, he said that eh
didnt understand why press is against him, butl let me tell you
mr stone that in a little period maibe you wont hear anything
from the press, not because he is doing well it would be because
all press could be closed, another thing you saod its about how
chavez has done for the poor people, well we reconize that good
things have been done about it but its nothing if you see that
over the period of chavez entered 900 billion dollards and you
can go to venezuela and realize that you cannt see any major
improvement in the venezuelan people lives(poor, average)so ill
give you an advice about say things about chavez, first, search
information about the real true with friends or something like
that and not just from the government because you may be speaking
good things about the next hitler for example and i dont think
this is good bur your name, hope you read this once because this
country isnt going to stand this guy for a long and we hope that
when he had fallen you dont say good things about this
dictator(yeahh he was elected with votes but itsnt enough for a
real democracy)  By: jaime on the September 7th, 2009
