As the days go by, it’s really hard to tell apart the presidencies of President Barack Obama and his liberal predecessor Jimmy Carter.
“If I were a U.S. citizen I’d vote for Obama for president,” boasted Mariela Castro during her San Francisco conference last week. “I think he is sincere, I think he speaks from the heart.” To cheers and applause from the San Franciscan crowd Raul Castro’s daughter also proclaimed that “what we want is the power of emancipation through socialism.”
The daughter of Raul Castro—the man who has continued policies of arbitrary detentions and
numerous other human rights abuses that began under his brother—is throwing her support behind President Obama.
But with Obama ever maintaining the role of campaigner-in-chief, will he finally stand up for America and reject the Castro endorsement, if only to save face with Latino voters?
