The acting president of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro, has put a curse on citizens who do not vote for him in next week's election.

He likened his main rival candidate, Henrique Capriles, to Spanish conquerors fighting indigenous people in the 16th Century.

A centuries-old curse, he said, would fall on those who did not vote for him.

I love how he even said Chavez's ghost appeared in front of him whistling and used that as an argument for people to vote him.

The worst part is that I'm sure some people are going to believe all that.

The only important thing he ever did before getting in the government's bandwagon was being the president of the caracas' bus drivers trade union, which was of course, of left tendencies. He was also apparently born in Colombia and received training in Cuba.

Also this whole article is stupid, the way he said it sounds like a colloquial expression if anything. Many things get lost in translation.

Nope, this isn't slang, this is directly something he made up. It's not slang in Amazonas nor has anybody ever said this before.

He also claims to be a descendant of [url=http://www.el-nacional.com/tu_decides_2013/Maduro-heredero-Cacique-Guaicaipuro_0_167383290.html]the Cacique Guaicaipuro[/url]. Again, he really means this shit, he's such a compulsive fucking liar he really believes that he was spoken to by Chavez reincarnated in the form of a bird and fucking spoke to him.

Willie Colon made a song about how much of a fucking liar he is actually (Lyrics are on spanish, I'm not sure if there's a translation, I'll make one myself if I can't find it)
