The other thing I want to draw to your attention and ask you for your comment on is another report from last week. This is an AP, Associated Press, story that comments about how a government official recently blocked six anti-Chávez hopefuls from the September ballot. It notes that based solely on suspicion, with no need for hard evidence, are they allowed to prevent a candidate from seeking public office.
Do you have any comments on the state of a viable opposition in the country that would provide Venezuelans a clear choice in the September election? What's the state of the opposition?
