6. I've looked it up and there is a limit in Venezuela

You are allowed to be elected once and can only have one immediate reelection with the constitutionally guaranteed recourse of holding a recall referendum anytime within the last three years of a presidential term. (The last part is needed in the US as well. Let's recall Bush)

So Chavez can be a presidential candidate once more, but if he fails to be reelected the second time then he can't run for office again.
