Opponents of President Nicolas Maduro who have taken to the streets day after day in Venezuela now find themselves rallying in support of an unexpected hero: the chief prosecutor who helped throw many of them into jail.
Power leads to corruption, and absolute power leads to absolute corruption. Venezuela should carry out full constitutional reform to adopt a modified semi-presidential system with cabinet, and limit the president to a single 5-year term with no eligibility to run again for 6 years afterwards. Laws that are not backed by penalties are not laws, and a constitution which does not brook resistance is not a constitution. When the actions of the president are unconstitutional, the people have a duty to resist. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.
