** ADVANCE FOR MONDAY, AUG. 27 ** FILE ** Venezuelan soldiers and aid workers, in orange, wait to board a Venezuelan Air Force helicopter to deliver aid to flooded areas near the city of Trinidad, Bolivia, March 9, 2007. When floods hit Bolivia this year, the U.S. provided $1.5 million in a planeload of supplies and cash. Chavez promised 10 times more and sent in teams that helped victims for weeks. In all, Chavez's pledges to Bolivia total over $800 million, more than six times the U.S. commitment this year. (AP Photo/Dado Galdieri)
