Cuban Communist party re-elects Raul Castro as leader

HAVANA: -- No surprises in Cuba, where the Communist party has agreed that Raul Castro should serve a second term as head of the party.

The 84-year old has called for sweeping changes in Cuba’s Soviet-style economy, and wants top leaders to retire aged 70, but he also insists the pace of change should not be too fast.

Well when you consider the corrupt US backed puppet Government of Batista which had embraced the Mafia. And considering 56 years of Sanctions I think the Cubans have done well. How much better life would have been for them and how much less tension if instead of persecuting Cuba the Americans had admitted their mistakes and worked on reconciliation with the Cubans. Think on it no missile crisis and certainly not the problems in Central America. Now they are warming again to Cuba as they are to Vietnam. Positive orientated but not weak Diplomacy works much better than rusty Sabres do.
