FORMER Cuban president Fidel Castro says a “profound racism” in the United States will stop millions from voting for Barack Obama in next month’s presidential election and it is a miracle the Democratic candidate has not been assassinated.
The ailing 82-year-old made the comments in a 1,200-word reflection on recent global economic problems and the contest for the White House, published by Cuban state media on Saturday night.
“Racism is deeply rooted in the United States where the mind of millions of people can hardly reconcile with the notion that a black man, with his wife and children could live in the White House, which is precisely called White. It’s a miracle that the Democratic candidate has not met the same destiny as Martin Luther King, Malcolm X and others who only a few decades ago dreamed of justice and equality."
Castro said Republican candidate John McCain likes to enhance his reputation as a belligerent man and he was one of the worst students in his class at West Point.
“Something McCain has aplenty is age, and his health condition is not safe,” he said.
He said he highlighted this because, if McCain is elected and anything went wrong with his health, then: “the lady of the rifle, the inexperienced former [sic] governor of Alaska could be come president of the United States. It can be noticed that she does not know a thing.”
Fair Play For Cuba !!
You know Fidel
I grew up in Miami and I heard about a young Lawyer who was all about change!
You know that Lawyer was ALSO Mr Beard Scumbag who destroyed a whole DAM country and NOW uses a Cute Little Marxist code word Dictator in place of the real term Mass Murderer! So do not die on us just YET But suffer for years while we snicker!!!!!!!!!
Given that Castro deposed the BLACK President of Cuba, Fulgencio Batista, this is truly rich.
Castro, you’re a worthless piece of garbage.
More Obama support from just one of the usual suspects. Would I vote for a black candidate? Of course, but not this one. Its no different than a NOW member saying they would vote for a woman vice president/president but not Palin. I was at a Flea Mkt today and they were pushing Obama T shirts, I bought a Che shirt for a Liberal buddy as a joke and the guy said how about a Obama shirt, I told him one was enough. ;o)
has CASTRO ever changed clothes? lol
Ahhhh...the inconsequential ramblings of a rotting Marxist.
Actually, the REAL miracle is that John McCain survived the inhuman degradation visited on him by the Fidel’s home boys in VietNam.
Racism, you sorry sack of chit? When was the last time Barry was nearly tortured to death?
Thank Gawd I'm not a leftist.
Racism just ain't my bag.
I STILL refuse to be a part of the sexist plan and help to disallow Sarah Palin to become VP as a woman however.
Go take a dump Fidel.
HF
Michael Moore must be ecstatic that that Castro is for OBAMA!
Is it POSSIBLE that things could get any sicker? I mean, Obama is a socialist, who very life experience is embroiled in working with the worst in our society-those who have killed us (weathermen), exploited us (ACORN), those who ACTUALLY written of disgust about the Jewish people and their home in Israel (Rev Wright in his church bulletins (thank God someone downloaded them before they were removed from the Trinity Churches website) and on and on.
Obama is a very bad man-he is a man who VOTED to allow little just born babies who were supposed to die in abortions but somehow survived to be LEFT TO DIE!!!!!!!
THIS IS WHO OBAMA IS.
A CREEP!
NO WONDER all of the dregs of our world-CASTRO, Bill AYERS, REV WRIGHT, creepy hollyweird people such as Madonna or Susan Sarandon actualy like OBAMA-this man who associates with THOSE who HATE OUR COUNTRY---ALWAYS THOSE who have never SERVED our nation.
RUN FROM OBAMA! RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!
THIS MAN SHOULD NEVER EVER BE OUR COMMANDER IN CHIEF! EVER!!!! We will LOSE OUR MILITARY
Any questions?
Hmmm...an avowed atheist talking about “miracles?”
I love that Castro seems to be concerned with the ramifications of a President Palin.
I have never felt that a presidential election could mean the death of America before but I do now. How could this happen????
I like his comments about Palin.
When Fidel Castro insults you, you know you have truly arrived.
Obama would never be assainated, even assasins have some scruples and would rather not see all future schools named after him.
OTOH planes still must obey the laws of gravity.
Sounds like Castro is giving B.O. his endorsement.
This is a comedy routine, right? Because poor Fidel seems to be under the impression that Americans really give a damn what he thinks when in fact, most Americans under 50 years old don’t even know who he is!
The “lady of the rifle” shoots moose. Fidel (and Che, back in the day) shoot political prisoners. Commie moral reasoning is bizarre, to say the least!
