People have chosen not to give him an indefinite or rather a "lifetime" appointment. In fact he will be barred from running in 2012 unless he makes a change to vote that just occurred. Thank goodness there is not going to be another lifetime president in the America's.
The sooner his time is up the better, in my opinion. Hopefully in the next election Venezuela will choose someone who allows more freedom of thought.
