    With a new year approaching, 2009, it will be the 50th annivesray of the Cuban Revolution, on Jan 1st. But with the anniversary, will Cuba change, adjust to a democratic society or something near it.

    Will or should Obama meet with Raul Castro. Oh! By the way, on March 9th, it will be my 50th anniversary, when I arrive in Idelwild (JFK) Airport & began living in America.

    Thank you!

    Is Kwanzaa losing it's recognition? Does it need more promotion of the cultural celebration. No! It's not a religious, political holiday, although it does carry some essences of spirituality and economics. It's not anti-Christmas, nor was it to be an alternative. And worse of all, "it is not a Black Christmas."
