Well, I would suggest that the two Latin American countries most hostile towards American intervention would be Venezuela and Bolivia - Venezuela because the old political elites there have close friends in Washington, and Bolivia because the farmers do not see why they should impoverish themselves by ceasing traditional coca production.
Cuba, after its revolution in the late 1950s, is clearly also hostile to the US - hence the US imposition of a trade blockade that has prevented the people there from advancing as economically and independently as they could otherwise have done.
However, governments in Colombia, Peru and Chile are perhaps only the strongest supporters of American policies - Colombia closely cooperates with US Military in the war on drugs and grants US airbases, while the more market based economies in Chile (largely established with US economic aid during the Pinochet regime) and Peru make them more natural allies than the more current left leaning governments of Argentina and Brazil.
Most countries in Latin America, however, no longer have puppet governments of the US in power as they did through various stages of the 20th century - for example in Nicaragua, Guatemala, and Panama.
While this is largely limited to political rhetoric and the development of their own national indistries, it is clear that a huge amount of the optimism and goodwill that existed in Latin American towards the empire in the north at the time of the wars of independence there has to a large extent been lost through 2 centuries of interference.
The more dominant vision is that of the independence hero, Simon Bolivar, who wrote in the 1820s that the United States "seemed destined to plague the world in the name of liberty."
