Message to Carlos Gutierrez Re Bush's Plan for Cuba 

[Following is the message I sent to Carlos Gutierrez regarding Bush's 
current and planned actions against Cuba.  I was not able to listen to 
Bush's speech before sending this, but anyone following Bush's agenda 
against Cuba (indeed against the poor countries of the world) has a 
pretty good idea of what Bush's message will be.   I guess I had better 
be very careful about for whom I open my door--if my message is read.  
But, then, that is real life--saying what needs to be said and being 
willing to accept the consequences. -Joan]

It is very sad to see Bush once again go down the wrong path. This
time regarding Cuba.  Of course, Bush is not the only president to live
in fear of the Miami Cuban American Mafia terrorists.  It has become a 
habit and desire for political candidates to woo these terrorists in 
order to get the state of Florida.  Of course, as in the 2000 elections 
especially, the Mafia makes a fiasco  of democracy. On the contrary, 
Cuba has the most fair and free elections any where in the world.  How
I wish we had Cuba's system:  One political party that serves to hold
the humanitarian ideals of the country together but does NOT nominate 
candidates.  Only the PEOPLE nominate candidates and vote in secret 
ballots for which the ballot boxes are guarded by youth.  Pretty
amazing stuff.  Also, Fidel or anything person who becomes President of
Cuba, must first be voted into the National Assembly of People's Power
by the People.  Fidel has always been overwhelming elected to the
National Assembly of People's Power. And, this is with approximately
95% of the PEOPLE voting.

Bush keeps saying that he supports the Cuban people right to speak
out. So, why does not this deaf man listen to the overwhelming majority
of Cubans who have spoken and who support their Revolutionary programs, 
especially their humanitarian universal health care program which they 
share with the poor of the world and their free education through 
college, which they also share with the poor of the world.  Here in the 
US over 18,000 people die a year because of lack of health care.  Here 
in the US youth are becoming indebted to the moneyed interests with 
their student loans.  It is very similar to the way the US controlled 
IMF and World Bank have indebted the poor in third-world counties to 
make them dependent upon the US. 

Another thing that is important to do is:  Either stop the Cuban 
Adjustment Act OR, if it is kept in place, do a Mexican Adjustment Act, 
a Salvadoran Adjustment Act, a Guatemalan Adjustment Act, a Hondurans 
Adjustment Act---well, you get the idea.  If you did an "adjustment
act" in all of the other Latin American countries that have become 
devastating poor, with no health care, with children not being able to 
attend school, with children being used for sex trade, with one
atrocity after atrocity that does NOT happen in Cuba, these other Latin
American countries would empty out and run to their abuser (the US). 

Last, stop the illegal and immoral blockade against Cuba---that is what 
the overwhelming majority of Cubans are begging for; but, again, deaf 
Bush (and the other US moneyed interest nominated and "elected" 
presidents) must listen to the wishes of the People. I am so ashamed of 
the US government for its brutal and terrorist acts against the People 
of Cuba, who have done nothing but use their accomplishments to help
the poor of the world. 

When will you and the rest of the Republicrats listen to the voices of 
the PEOPLE around the world, instead of the voices of the moneyed 
interests who control the US government???????
