I bet Castro didnt even write those words and i cant remember the last time since he said something about Clinton or Obama.
and i also i think
The Mainstream media is still playing a old Propaganda game.

You do know that Castro used be against Clinton during the bombing of Yugoslavia.
so i see this article has a propaganda work oh and even iraq was against the bombing of Yugoslavia.

If Castro really wrote those words, we should be able to see the full text of the original article somewhere. Since a google search seems to lead no where, I'm going to assume that - at most - it is a badly out of context and misreported statement.

Castro said some weeks ago that he already has 'his' candidate, but he won't 'endorse' him because the press would use it. (same for Chavez)

Media spin!!

When you read his words in the full text of his speech, he's making fun of a supposedly invicible Hillary/Obama ticket, not endorsing them:


Today, talk is about the seemingly invincible ticket that might be created with Hillary for President and Obama for Vice President. 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.


That's how I read it. And it is just unbelievable that Reuters would spin it into an endorsement. :confused:

Would any self respecting politician actually WANT the endorsement of Castro?
