"A
Cuban-American and Patriotism in America"
By José
Reyes 9/5/2007
I am a
Cuban-American which simply means that I was born in Cuba and I was raised
here in America. Cuban-Americans are mostly concentrated in Florida but
could be found throughout this great nation and in every single state. We
love Cuba and we are very proud of our beloved and besieged country of birth but we
admire the United States of America just as much and "That's a Fact Jack". We
protect and defend this country to the end, after all, it was America that
accepted, with open arms, "all" Cubans who fled Cuba when Fidel took over in
1959. This humanitarian act was unjustly discontinued
in 1994, when ex-president Clinton decided to illegally change the status of
Cubans fleeing Cuba from Refugee to Migrant, although Cuba's unelected
leaders were still in power then and still are, right now. I love this
country and will protect it with all I my might, but there is growing
concern that has been constantly bothering me since 1992, yeah that's right
again, when Bill Clinton came into power. This is when the emphasis of
belonging to either two particular "groups", Conservative or Liberal, became
necessary to observe and/or judge a person or a political party. Americans,
which includes all Cuban-Americans, began to split up into 2
groups, Conservatives and Liberals. The new Clinton
presidential
atmosphere at the white house was about youthfulness and change,
starting with the song played when the final results came
in and Clinton and Gore came up on stage, it was that corny Fleetwood Mac
song, "Don't Stop". On the other hand, representing the Republican party,
you had a stubborn George Bush who was close to the edge of becoming a
tyrant, so this made it much easier to vote Clinton's way. Clinton found the
right tactic and was able to win, but it wasn't because he was loved by the
American people, that's for sure. Clinton then proceeded to split the
country in two, where one was forced to, by public opinion to
think as a liberal or as a conservative. This was the main goal and the main
objective of the Clinton camp right from the very beginning and was probably
planned for many years before he even became a candidate. Clinton was the
one who initiated this separation and has created a big problem and an
enormous concern in the Patriotism department in America. The
Conservative image makers are as much to blame, for they fell
into the tender trap constructed by the Clinton Party. Although it was a big
mistake by the Republican party, I think it was done in a defensive and
protective manner, but contributed in the separation of the people. The
exact thing happened with the US media, for this was their big chance to
obtain more control of their misinformation network of reporting. Now,
what is the result of Liberal and conservative thinking and what about those who do not want to be identified
with either group? Before I continue, to clear things up for those who are
not sure of Conservative thinking and Liberal thinking, I have the
dictionary definitions and description of both here "in general" (Online

So now that you have read the definitions provided here, where do you stand?
Are you a Conservative or a Liberal? Tough isn't it? I say 90% percent of
you agree partially or completely with both, but I feel because of the
political situation that has been placed upon us by Mr. Bill Clinton, we are
forced to choose from one or the other. I personally have chosen the
Conservative ideals and for several reasons which I will explain later, but
I am in favor of all the liberal ideals also because both of these ways of
thinking add up to one thing, that is a DEMOCRACY. These ideals were split
by Mr. Bill Clinton and the leftist media in this country. Mr. Clinton and
the media's constant admiration with communist ideals enforced by the iconic
communist leaders they marvel has placed all American with a crazy
predicament. Well, conservative or liberal, I agree with both as you know, so
how would I choose and vote for a leader in an election here in America, a
leader that will preserve and defend "Democracy", a man or Woman that
will be voted by the people and will be for the people. Take a look at all the
candidates who are running for president, Republican and/or Democrat and choose
which one will preserve and defend democracy in America to its fullest. I
personally have decided,
hands down, I will take "any" Republican in a heartbeat and I will
"show" you why. I will show you the two sides and then you choose. I say 90%
of you will choose the Conservative side after close analysis. Here is a
link I created on my website that support Republicans:
Conservative Websites Listing

Democratic Candidates:

Republican
Candidates:

Here are some
Liberal (Commie) Websites which support Democrats:
Now where do you stand?
As an American citizen I hate anybody who is a liberal in the times we live
in. They do not fall under the real definition listed above of what liberals
is suppose to think like. For a matter of fact, they are anti-American and fall under the
category of Communism in my book. These so-called Liberal websites are the
strongest supporters of the Democrat party and are connected with several
communist websites here in America and Communist ruled governments around
the world. As you can see, the so-called liberal websites are more concern
with degrading this country, they do not have any solutions in their
criticism, all they do in a very negative way, is discriminate their fellow
so-called brothers and sisters. They concentrate on problems in America that
are very evident to everybody and connect it to the Republican party, like
they are solely responsible for "all" the problems here. Meanwhile they have
no concrete support or examples to support their arguments. If you read the
Conservative websites you get more of a feel of the truth, although they
might sometimes exaggerate a little to get their point across, they still at
least supply the reader with plenty of evidence and examples to support
their argument. As I work myself back to Mr. Clinton, who started this
separation of Democracy, the true liberal is still in the Conservative
thinker, the liberal the Bill Clinton administration created is a
politically correct, anti-American communist. So for all you true liberals
out there, try to disassociate yourselves from these phonies. Coming soon on
November 2008, the wife of Mr. Bill Clinton, Hillary, will be competing for
president of these United States of America, all indications show her in
front and unless something drastic happens, she will be nominated for
Presidency. Vote as a true American, as a
true Liberal, forget about the term Conservative, although you agree with
the thinking process of one and vote for Democracy! Speaking as a true American and as true
Patriot, vote Republican, your kids will have a better future. Speaking as a
true patriot of America and a true Cuban Patriot with plenty of experience
in communist tactics, vote Republican or don't vote at all, you will regret
it in the future.
