Cuban State Media: ‘Negro’ Obama ‘Incited Rebellion and Disorder'
Breitbart ^ | 3/31/16 | Frances Martel

The Havana Tribune, a state-controlled Cuban newspaper, has added insult to injury following Fidel Castro’s scathing criticism of President Barack Obama upon his departure from the island. In an editorial, the title of which refers to President Obama as “negro,” an opinion columnist has accused him of “inciting rebellion.”

The article is titled “Negro, ¿Tu Eres Sueco?” which roughly translates to “Black Man, Are You Dumb?” (The idiom “pretend to be a Swede” means to play dumb, hence the title is literally asking, “Are you Swedish?”) The author, who is black, goes on to condemn President Obama for meeting with Cuban pro-democracy activists and “subtly” suggesting that the Cuban Revolution needed to change. “Obama came, saw, but unfortunately, with the pretend gesture of lending a hand, tried to conquer,” Elias Argudín writes.

Foreign Policy Idiocy. Rampant in the Oval Office. This utter failure makes Jimmy Carter look like a GENIUS.

We can’t be a superpower with an idiot leader like this and a moronic, backwards majority that worships him.

This is the best year I’ve had since I was a kid!

Obama goes over to Cuba to buddy-up with Castro and it turns out Castro is a buddyforker.

Negro in Spanish does not have the same connotation as in English.

This guy is probably the only black in Cuba with any kind of backing from the leadership. If Obama had really wanted to tick them off, he would have pointed that out.

What is the connotation? I really don’t know. This doesn’t sound complimentary.

The word Negro (plural, Negroes) was used in the English-speaking world to refer to a person of black ancestry or appearance. Negro denotes "black" in Spanish and Portuguese, derived from the ancient Latin word niger, meaning black, which itself is probably from a Proto-Indo-European root *nek-, "to be dark", akin to *nok-, night.

Niger means black in Latin? I wonder if that is how the word.............Oh never mind.

What connotation, negro is a race? That is the classic scientific and anthropological term for them.
