Since the fall of communism in Eastern Europe, when has the USA assassinated a democratically elected foreign leader, either directly or by proxy? Maybe you can find an example but I doubt it.

I'm sure in the distant past they've tried to bump off Fidel a few times but probably not lately.

There are a lot of questions as to where Mr. Morales got his money for his campaign but there are also questions as to where some of Chavez's opponents got the money for their campaigns as well.

It's a little dirty but the emphasis might be on "little" if you compare it to the blatant interference from outside sources that has gone on in South America in the past. And the history of Bolivian coups.

An analysis of the potential internal and external problems with a Morales victory before the results were known:
