Talk:Bolivarian University of Venezuela

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I removed the "anti-american" from "Hugo Chavez's socialist and anti-american vision of a Latin American "Bolivarian Revolution"." as it makes no sense. The more I read that sentence the less it makes sense in the quoted form, and while part of me thinks it's just a poor sentence, I'm fairly certain it is because you can have an anti-american viewpoint, argument, agenda even, but you can't have an anti-american vision. It just doesn't make sense, but I find it hard to explain why without just saying read it for yourself.

Beyond grammatical concerns, it is incorrect. You cannot factually claim that Chavez' vision of the Bolivarian Revolution involves an anti-american future. He has certainly stated that the Bolivarian Revolution will be socialist. Some of his rhetoric can easily be seen as anti-american. The two are not connected.
