George W. Bush on Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez: “I judge the president based upon his honoring of the institutions that make democracy sound in Venezuela … And it’s very important for leaders throughout the hemisphere, whether they agree with America or not, to honor the tenets of democracy. And to the extent he doesn’t do that, then I believe he should be subject to criticism.”
