Kerry gets a Miami Cuban American endoresement

[Catt03]

In an unexpected move that signals the political diversification of Cuban-Americans, the executive director of a prominent Cuban-American exile group here has left his post to join a Democratic advocacy organization.

1. Much of the "leadership" of the CANF are registered Dems

The CANF supports the total travel ban on Cuba (bush's new travel policy).

Joe Garcia is a rightwingnut with a D, like Zell Miller.

A stain on our party. :puke:

4. Then why is he joining the Dems? Is he another mole?

5. Kerry & the Dem party DO NOT support lifting the sanctions/travel ban

Kerry's stated policy on Cuba:

Under a Kerry administration Cuba will remain under US sanctions

Under a Kerry administration we will still be travel banned unless our travel is deemed politically worthy by US gov jackboots
