Chavez said that he'll have some questions for the new U.S. leader when they finally meet.
"Somebody needs to ask him what his vision is for the crisis that's weighing terribly on Latin America," he said.

What crisis is Chavez referring to? I'd like to know what he thinks is going on and what he thinks the US should be doing down there.
EDIT - And do you think the US as a nation has a responsibility to do anything in Latin America or should that be left up to individual Americans? What do you think of the Monroe Doctrine? Good or bad? Why?
