Fidel Castro on Obama’s speech in Arizona

Taken from CubaDebate  "When he began his speech yesterday, I observed that he was tense and highly dependent on the written pages. He soon recovered his serenity, his usual presence on the stage and the precise words for expressing his ideas. What he did not say was not said because he did not want to say it.
"As a literary piece and just praise of those who deserve it, it could be given a prize.
"As a political speech it left much to be desired."
Castro's expectations were high, most likely because he saw the Che posters along with Cuban and Soviet flags at Obama offices and rallies.
