Our economic woes are being carried out by enemies outside of the US having control over our finances. Obama is a puppet and you will someday find out. with him as President the chances of Cuba ever being free are below zero.<BR/>Someone has put a ring through many cuban exiles noses and they are following a socialist around.

First I believe that if Mr. Mas Canosa Sr. would be alive today his son would not be meeting with Obama and producing this blog, if it's his. He would drop dead immediately out of shame for what his son is doing. Second, I don't like Obama. We have sufficient libero-social-communists in Latin America, following the Cuban example, to be willing to vote for one in the U.S. We need a person as President, that would know international policies, not be a racist like Obama and wife are following the teachings of rev. Wright, and that despise everything good this country has to offer. Also someone that would be accepting the threats of radical muslims, or meeting with the midget heading Iran, who has caused so much harm in the war in Iraq as his sole responsibility. We also need someone that would put chaves in its place and his threats vs. the U.S. Cuba should be free from the tyrannical system it suffers to this date, and Cubans must be allowed to find a way to do it for themselves. The embargo should continue in full force and once the kastro bastards don't get the millions from Exiles it will fall apart even with the support of chaves/venezuela. We have to remember oil is not eaten, and once the food condition is sufficiently bad in Cuba and no "fulas" are received the Cuban population will find a way out of the situation they are in today.<BR/>Mas Canosa....think twice before you go ahead with a radical muslim as Obama.<BR/>Marianao415...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503239653195967295.post-91260561680819872112008-02-14T06:23:00.000-05:002008-02-14T06:23:00.000-05:00I support Obama ´s Policy.

We have the documents to know exactly how many Cubans were paid to blow things up and stir up propoganda. 3) I made clear there is no excuse for censorship or political prisoners when there is no active outside subversion. 4) There are more Cubans online debating in blogs every day. (There would be more if the US did not block their internet fiber optic cable access). Raul has called for debate and the governement recently held thousands of meetings across the island asking for criticisms and suggestions. And they wrote it all down and analyzed it, raising the prospect of change.leftsidehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00676827005815770066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503239653195967295.post-19940325570910734992008-01-25T18:52:00.000-05:002008-01-25T18:52:00.000-05:00I like you and your style. You appear to be honest unlike the Clintons. But my Mother always told me that she could tell alot about me by who my friends were....<BR/><BR/>Castro Endorses you and Hillary?<BR/><BR/>Castro's tip: Clinton-Obama the winning ticket<BR/>Wed Aug 29, 2007 2:06am EDT<BR/>By Anthony Boadle<BR/><BR/>HAVANA (Reuters) - Ailing Cuban leader Fidel Castro is tipping Democratic candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to team up and win the U.S. presidential election.<BR/><BR/>Clinton leads Obama in the race to be the Democratic nominee for the November 2008 election, and Castro said they would make a winning combination.<BR/><BR/>"The word today is that an apparently unbeatable ticket could be Hillary for president and Obama as her running mate," he wrote in an editorial column on U.S. presidents published on Tuesday by Cuba's Communist Party newspaper, Granma.<BR/><BR/>At 81, Castro has outlasted nine U.S. presidents since his 1959 revolution turned Cuba into a thorn in Washington's side by building a communist society about 90 miles offshore from the United States.<BR/><BR/>He said all U.S. presidential candidates seeking the "coveted" electoral college votes of Florida have had to demand a democratic government in Cuba to win the backing of the powerful Cuban exile community.<BR/><BR/>Clinton and Obama, both senators, called for democratic change in Cuba last week.<BR/><BR/>Castro has not appeared in public since intestinal illness forced him to hand over power to his brother Raul Castro in July last year.<BR/><BR/>He has turned to writing dozens of columns and essays, but rumors that his health is worsening or that he may even be dead have swirled through the Cuban exile community in Miami in the last two weeks.<BR/><BR/>Castro's only reference to U.S. President George W. Bush in his latest essay was to say that he "needed fraud" to win Florida's electoral college votes and the presidency in the fiercely contested election in 2000.<BR/><BR/>Castro said former President Bill Clinton was "really kind" when he bumped into him and the two men shook hands at a U.N. summit meeting in 2000. He also praised Clinton for sending elite police to "rescue" shipwrecked Cuban boy Elian Gonzalez from the home of his Miami relatives in 2000 to end an international custody battle.<BR/><BR/>But even Clinton was forced to bow to Miami politics and tighten the U.S. embargo against Cuba in 1996, using as a "pretext" the shooting down of two small planes used by exile groups to overfly Havana, Castro wrote.<BR/><BR/>He said his favorite U.S. president since 1959 was Jimmy Carter, another Democrat, because he was not an "accomplice" to efforts to violently overthrow the Cuban government.<BR/><BR/>Sixteen years after Dwight Eisenhower broke off diplomatic ties with Cuba, Carter restored low-level relations in 1977 when interest sections were opened in each country's capital.<BR/><BR/>Castro made no mention of Republican Cold War victor Ronald Reagan, or of John F. Kennedy, whose Democratic administration launched the disastrous Bay of Pigs invasion by CIA-trained Cuban exiles in 1961.<BR/><BR/>One of the most dangerous moments of the Cold War came a year later when Kennedy and Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev faced off for 13 days over Soviet missiles that Castro allowed Moscow to place in Cuba.einoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503239653195967295.post-43782706862266372022008-01-25T16:13:00.000-05:002008-01-25T16:13:00.000-05:00Leftside-<BR/>Your post reveals quite a few things about you:<BR/>1. unlike virtually every country in the international community, you seem to refute the mere existence of dissidents by referring to them in quotes, much like the Cuban government<BR/>2. your pollyanna foreign policy solution that ceasing support of dissidents in Cuba will remove the "excuse" for political prisoners doesn't hold water- before the US and the international community ever supported dissidents in the 1990s, what excuse, pray tell, did the Cuban government have for political prisoners ??<BR/>3. you have no credibility- what excuse existed for censorship before Radio and TV Marti ? <BR/><BR/>And, unlike the Cuban people, you have the freedom to blather on with your nonsense on blogs. <BR/><BR/>Cuba's people demand and deserve freedom and human rights- and despite your myopic political views on the subject, they will achieve their goalexit stage leftnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503239653195967295.post-28206501536207036742008-01-25T12:34:00.000-05:002008-01-25T12:34:00.000-05:00I think Obama is one of the most realistic candidate to the presidency. He talks about fixing the mess we all have here with the economy, the war situation and besides that he knows how unfair is the situation of all Cubans in the United States and our families in the island. Somebody has to move the lever; Is really evident he's willing to move it forward.

By his ability to differentiate and to express openly his viewpoints. He made his homework in a creative way. <BR/>America: wake up!!!<BR/>Go, Obama, Go!Omarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503239653195967295.post-32103778550498392372008-01-25T04:02:00.000-05:002008-01-25T04:02:00.000-05:00Obama's position is slightly better than Hillary's, but it is basically the same as always. As long as the US Government commits to funding and organizing "dissidents" there will be trouble. It is simply unacceptable to provide millions to buy playstations and chocolate for people who will say bad things about the Cuban Government. We don't allow Cuba to fund any organizations or people in US, why should Cuba allow its arch-enemy to do the same?? An enemy 90 miles away that has a regime change policy, a "Plan for Transformation" (with coordinators) and expanded CIA desk. <BR/><BR/>But what Obama does thankfully realize is that the way forward with Cuba must involve negotiation. Positive change in Cuba will come faster if the US ends its aggressive policies in favor of neighborliness. Once we end the embargo and payments to dissidents, there will be no excuse for any political prisoners or economic woes. Once we end TV and Radio Marti there will be no excuse for media limits.leftsidehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00676827005815770066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503239653195967295.post-28721028974582109492008-01-25T00:02:00.000-05:002008-01-25T00:02:00.000-05:00Right on Obama!
