37. +1.... Soon come?
Unfortunately, many pseudo-leftists here would tell you that Cuba is a functioning democracy where people, who have the choice of voting for their favorite candidate, elected Castro in fair and democratic elections.

I think that the only part of their mind where they care about other countries than the US is the part where they feel concerned about the bad policies of the US abroad. They can only see the world from that angle. Nothing else matters other than the position of a country vis-à-vis their empire. The left is still wearing nappies in the US, in the middle of its "baby stage". The day I'll see these people creating a real progressive/modern socialist party in their country, I'll take them seriously.
