Fidel Castro Wants Cuba to be enslaved

Fidel Castro again bristled at the Obama administration's steps toward improving relations with Cuba, writing in a May Day message that the U.S. would like to see Cubans "return to the fold of slaves."

Sometimes you can't agrue with "ignant" people. He just does not want his people to have any sort of freedom. It is all about Fidel's control..sad.

Some of the U.S. officials say they would like to see some Cuban political and social reforms before exploring normalizing diplomatic relations. Fidel Castro insists that Cuba should make no concessions in return for better U.S. ties.

Racial disparities persist in higher-paying jobs

I know many of you are looking at this title and saying, "here we go again," someone always trying to bring up the "past." Sadly, this is not the past. I don't know why many people felt having a black President in office was going to solve the racial divide in America.



The Associated Press ran this article which shows the findings from an intense study done by the Joint Center or Political and Economic Studies. Rodrick Harrison, (a demographer) states, "The lesson of most economic downturns is minorities are the last hired, first fired. They lose jobs more quickly, and they will be the last to recover.

Blacks overall slightly narrowed the gap in 2007 with whites in average salary, but the pay disparity widened for blacks with college degrees. Blacks who had a four-year bachelor's degree earned $46,502, or about 78 percent of the salary for comparably educated whites.

If you are trying to keep up with the "JONESES" forget it. Unless of course your name is Jones.

Kwame Kilpatrick unwelcome in Denver

Well according to the Associated Press — Democratic candidate Barack Obama doesn't want the embattled mayor of Detroit on hand when Obama accepts the party's presidential nomination in Denver.




I have to admit I agree, it would be a distraction. Currently Kilpatrick faces eight felony charges in a perjury case and two felony charges in an assault case.

Even Obama's spokesperson stated that the focus should be on Obama at the nomination not on any other person.

Obama laughs at being Hillary's Vice President

Democrat Barack Obama ridiculed the idea of being Hillary Rodham Clinton's running mate Monday, saying voters must choose between the two for the top spot on the fall ticket

"I don't know how somebody who is in second place is offering the vice presidency to the person who is first place," Obama said, drawing cheers and a long standing ovation from about 1,700 people in Columbus, Miss.

I agree with him, why in the world would you want to be an underdog on a ticket from someone who slandered you the whole campaign. Seems like a Jeckyll and Hyde thing.
