Media Sensationalism Fans the Flames of Racism; Castro Burns the Marshmallows

Fidel Castro speaks:

HAVANA -Fidel Castro says a “profound racism” in the United States will stop millions from voting for Barack Obama in next month’s presidential election.

The ailing, 82-year-old former Cuban president says it is “a miracle that the Democratic candidate hasn’t suffered the same luck as (assassinated leaders) Martin Luther King, Malcolm X and others who harbored dreams of equality and justice.”
Castro’s written comments were published by state media Saturday. In them, he insists a “profound racism” exists in the U.S. and that millions of whites “cannot reconcile themselves to the idea that a black person … could occupy the White House, which is called just that: white.”

And yet, somehow Senator Obama, with only 3 short years in the U.S. Senate, has risen to the top, winning his Party’s nomination, and currently commands a lead in the polls.

Neat, huh?

Yes, we can’t stand black people in power. We don’t have a black Supreme Court Justice; we don’t have a black woman holding one of the most important offices in the executive branch – and who currently holds the title for being the 7th most powerful woman in the world, according to Forbes; and let’s not forget, we’ve never had black people in Congress. Oh, no…we’re very afraid of them.

MSM’s going to run rampant with this line, isn’t it? You know, make people forget just who Fidel Castro really is?

Obama is chalking up the endorsements. Chavez, Castro, and I’m sure Ahmadinejad is leaning his way.

P.S. Not to split hairs, but it’s marshmallows.

How many African Cubans are at the highest levels of Cuban gov’t ZERO. When it came time to find a replacement for Fidel, how many African Cubans, were in the top two? ZERO!
RACIST CUBAN LEADERS SHOULD NOT LECTURE USA ABOUT RACISM!

Thanks for the spelling tip, Joe. No wonder it looked a bit strange to me….but I didn’t really give it a second think.
