If you’ve been following Venezuelan politics, you’ve probably seen the
handiwork of this man, even if you haven’t seen HIM. And if you find his
habit of wearing black melodramatic and more than a little douchey, you
ain’t seen nothin’ yet. His campaigns are even more so…and now, their
creepy author has been uncloaked: <http://www.contrainjerencia.com/?p=68405>

*His name is Juan José Rendón, and he calls himself J.J. Rendón. Although
born a Venezuelan, he says he has no country, and in supposed mourning,
always dresses in black. Rendón lives in Miami, Florida, and from there has
been the creator of the dirty campaigns which have characterized the
representatives of the South American right wing.*
*

During the last 27 years, he has advised the presidential campaigns of
Enrique Peña Nieto, Juan Manuel Santos, Alvaro Uribe Vélez, and Porfirio
Lobo, among others. The discrediting and tarnishing of his clients’
adversaries is his principal strategy.

One strategy, which Rendón has openly admitted to applying, is the “Three
Ss”, in which false information concerning the sexuality, health and salary
of the targeted individual is created in a campaign of discredit.

In an interview with Colombian journalist María Jimena Duzán, Rendón said
that his proposition is to “shatter” the adversary and that it is a
business for him, one that brings to the table the latest campaign by
sectors of the Venezuelan right.

The dirty campaign against the quality of drinking water, as well as the
attacks questioning the health of Hugo Chávez, starting in July 2012 by
various opposition parties and media, were the work of J. J. Rendón.

In the same interview with Duzán, Rendón admits to being an anti-ethical
advisor because “that ethical thing is for the philosophers.”

As far as Venezuela is concerned, it appears that his only connection with
it is his closeness to the opposition, directly with the “Democratic Unity
Table” (MUD), for whom he designed campaigns of instigation,
destabilization, and discreditation of the national government.

Even if the local opposition has wanted to conceal the intervening hand of
Rendón in its constant wave of campaigns to promote destabilization, there
is a very close link with Henrique Capriles Radonsky.

“Have you been working in the campaign of Henrique Capriles?” Jaime Bayly
asked 
him<http://www.vtv.gob.ve/articulos/2013/04/19/j.j.-rendon-admite-que-es-el-estratega-de-la-campana-de-capriles-7476.html>,
two days before the elections of October 7, to which the “king of black
propaganda,” as the Mexican, Ramón Betancour, called him, replied: “What do
you think?” “It’s gone very well for you since you’ve taken on the campaign
of Henrique Capriles!” commented the Peruvian TV host, who constantly
mocked the Venezuelan political process.

The planting of the idea of a supposed “electoral fraud” was another of
Rendón’s ideas, and it was precisely that which brought him to public
awareness in 2004, as a pusher of that line of propaganda after the
opposition defeat in the recall referendum of 2004.
*

*Rendón has worked on 22 campaigns and claims he has only lost one. His
most famous defeat was that same recall referendum of 2004, against
Comandante Hugo Chávez. After that he abandoned Venezuela to take up
residence in the United States.*

Translation mine.

Well, now you know why he wears black (and probably doesn’t cast a
reflection or a shadow, either). Chavecito pretty much drove a stake
through his heart, or rather the shrunken remnant thereof. Yet, perversely,
he’s still walking this Earth, while Chavecito has gone on to blessed
immortality. Unlike most vampires, Rendón hasn’t yet bitten the dust. But
maybe shining a bright light on him will send him scuttling back under the
rock from whence he came.

We can only hope, eh?
