Better: a striking note, modern and historic. That’s Jose Paez. Born in Argentina, died in Mexico, never set foot in Venezuela, but stood next to Bolivar at a urinal once. Actually, no - he was the General in Chief of the army that fought Spain in the wars of independence, and was the 4th, 9th, and 19th President of Venezuela. As things went in that part of the world, this seems typical:

"In 1847 President Monagas who was put into power by Páez became liberal and dispersed the Congress and proclaimed himself dictator. Páez led a rebellion against him but was defeated, imprisoned, and eventually exiled. He was exiled from the country in 1850 and did not return until 1858. In 1861, he became supreme dictator and ruled only for two years before again returning to exile. He lived in New York during his years in exile and died there in 1873."

Odd how you don’t read of many American presidents who ran rebellions, lost, and died in Brazil.
