Default Another Obama Endorsement
Kinda...

HAVANA (AP) - 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."

Castro also described Republican presidential candidate John McCain as "bellicose."

Hes right.

Of course on the opposite side of the spectrum are those who are going to vote for him just because he is black.

He's right about some people, but I think he overstates the issue by a fair bit. I think there are some racist people and I think there are some people who are nutty enough to try something dangerous, but that's what the secret service is for.

I also believe Obama is going to win.

"and others who harbored dreams of equality & justice"

Is it just me... or does that sound funny comming from a Commie Dictator?

Some people in this country will never vote for a black man for anything, that is just a fact.

However, I think this # is a very small percentage of the overall population. I do not believe that millions and millions of Americans are not going to vote for Obama just because he is black.

I believe that most people look beyond color and look to the man and what postions he stands for. Sure there are a few bad apples out there, but I reject the idea that this is a racist country.

Exactly right. Castro sounds like the left wing the Democrat party in this country.
