Atlanta - Cuban-Americans skeptical of outcome : Carter "useful tool" - Castro "devil"***Rene Diaz, a Cuban-American and CEO of Diaz Foods in Atlanta, sits on the Carter Center's Board of Councilors, an advisory group of prominent regional and local figures. He said Cuban-Americans need to take the opportunity to start a dialogue with Castro to come up with a post-Castro succession plan. When Castro dies, Diaz believes, different groups will vie for power: Castro's brother Raul, opposing generals in the army and the Cuban people. Cuba could "get worse before it gets better." "Carter is one man who can convince Castro that his legacy is important. He doesn't want to be the man who ruled Cuba for 40 years and then he died and it collapsed," Diaz said. "Carter can bring about some dialogues, some ideas to get to the next step. Cuba could be a success story."***

It is great to have members posting who have long memories. The Mariel boat scam left hundreds in this country victims of some of the violent thugs unleashed on this country. Terrorism in its crudest, cruddiest form. The aging thug of thugs, el heftie (scum) bag, should be summarily executed by Jimmy if he gets in close range. Wow. Wouldn't that make the news. Or Jimmy could take Gary Condit and a couple of his Hell's Angel's buddies with him and make Castro disappear. You don't negotiate with Frank Nitty, Al Capone or John Gotti. We should be dropping thousands of radios not capable of being jammed. Surely the technology exists for that. Make Guantanamo a staging ground. Dropping leaflets by the millions. Long live the embargo! Long live the soldiers who killed the invading Che Guevarro! Long live every freedom loving person in the world who fought against this murderous scumbag. Don't be fooled by the suit Jimmy. He'd shove a peanut where the sun don't shine on you so fast if you were one of his subjects you wouldn't know what hit you. He has no authority to speak for the people of Cuba as no one elected him. Meeting with him confers authority and gives Castro the very recognition that our State Department has wisely withheld the last 40 years.
