I was surprised today when I turned on my computer, because a news mencioned that Venezuela was taken by sorcery while Hugo Chaves was president.

An investigation was managed by the reporter  David Placer,  showed how  Cháves decitions were controlled by superstition.  The investigation included interview with the most near circle of friends and politicians of Cháves.

Placer and Zapata wrote a book  named The Chaves´s Witches.  This book talked about the Cháves´s superstition and how Fidel Castro had used it to infiltrate cuban politicians and controlled Venezuela.
