wboliv05.jpgWith Hugo Chavez continuing his stand up act in Harlem (where he was welcomed warmly) and getting heat from Democratics and Republicans alike for calling it as he sees it, other South American leaders critical of U.S. policy in the region have gotten lost in the shuffle. Amy Goodmann and Juan Gonzalez of Democracy Now! conduct an extensive interview with Bolivian President Evo Morales . In the interview Evo distances himself from the comments made by Chavez calling President Bush “the devil” but says that the U.S. needs to get out of Iraq and defend the environment, specifically by fighting global warming. The interview also highlights Evo’s political career and the changes he’s made in Bolivia since soming into office.

You can hear the entire interview on Democracy Now!’s website
