It will be a lot less than that, one year tops. It is standard communist tactic to prepare the next "Great Leader of the People" regrime.

My money is on ten months....

Or Less.

Thanks Zakeet.
Chavez, 57, has been through four rounds of chemotherapy in Cuba...
What should have happened was four rounds right through his cranium.
