Castro Calls Clinton-Obama Ticket "Invincible"

#1

Post by trashtalkr »

Add another name to the list of political observers who think a Clinton-Obama ticket would be unbeatable: Cuban leader Fidel Castro.

In an editorial in Cuba's communist party newspaper, Granma, the ailing dictator said the pairing of the two White House hopefuls seemed "invincible," according to an English translation on the paper's Web site.

Castro, who has overseen communist rule of Cuba since 1959, did, however, make it clear that he is no fan of the two Democrats' support of democratic reform in Cuba.

"Today, talk is about the seemingly invincible ticket that might be created with Hillary for President and Obama for Vice President," Castro said. "Both of them feel the sacred duty of demanding 'a democratic government in Cuba'. They are not making politics: they are playing a game of cards on a Sunday afternoon."

Granma Newspaper (Cuba)
"If there were no eternal consciousness in a man, if at the bottom of everything there were only a wild ferment, a power that twisting in dark passions produced everything great or inconsequential; if an unfathomable insatiable emptiness lay hid beneath everything, what would life be but despair?"

I just don't think America is ready for a minority president...As good as I think it may be for the country, I just don't think we're ready...As a whole I might add...I personally couldn't care less, they're going to talk shit and tear down whomever gets the job anyway...
