Raul Castro Endorses Obama
AZCONSERVATIVE ^ | 1 March 2008 | John Semmens

Posted on 03/03/2008 5:27:13 PM PST by John Semmens

In his first public statement since being officially named to succeed his ailing brother Fidel, Cuba’s new dictator, Raul Castro, expressed his “sincere hope” that Senator Barack Obama (D-Ill.) will be the next American president.

“Senator Obama fills me with a sense of hope for positive change in the relations between our countries,” Castro announced.

Castro said he was particularly impressed by Obama’s proposal to establish “labor battalions.” “This is the kind of stern measure needed to turn America away from the path of bourgeois exploitation and toward a regime of universally shared toil. It reminds me a lot of the steps Stalin took to build the Soviet Union into the most powerful and successful nation in the world.”

While this article is satire, Fidel Castro actually did already endorse both candidates as a Clinton-Obama ticket:

Castro: Clinton-Obama ticket 'invincible'
