Why Biscet for President of Cuba?

Why Not?

If you're a frequent visitor and have subjected yourself to my posts, You've probably noticed that, for the most part its one rant after another. One reaction to a story or an action by the regime after another. I have mostly been working against something. Raging against the regime. Hell, the name of the blog says it all.

Today, rather than react, It's time to act for a change.

We don't have to be on defense all the time, we too can go on offense.

We don't have to sit here with our arms crossed and watch them try to extend their tyrannical reign by legitimizing a succession through bogus and farcical "elections".

We don't have to watch as they force people to vote for the candidates they have chosen while they have the army, mobilized and on high alert, ready to slaughter the people who refuse to do what they're told.

We have to let the world and the Cubans on the Island know that there's an alternative.

Below, are Dr. Oscar Elias Biscet's principles. Simple Ideas. An alternative.

That's why he's languishing in a Cuban jail without medical attention because he represents a very simple alternative to their convoluted, corrupt and evil philosophy.

They know a very simple idea, FREEDOM, can bring them down.

8. The recognition of private property and free enterprise as the main pillars, to pursue the economic well-being of the country together with a guarantee to of workers of their right to organize independent labor unions that will promote collective interests.

9. The restructuring of the armed forces and its strict isolation from the economic and political activities and responsibilities of the country.
