Besides, the fact he's Cuban will be taken as automatic disqualification. What "those people" think or want is beside the point, even if it IS (or was) their own country at stake.

You'll have to Google its origin.

Oh, he studies old history. What does he know about today? Wait a minute...what's this about blacks? Can he be right? Nah. Our own black caucus from congress went and saw everything with their own eyes. And look how he is trying to butter me up. I've seen this before. Who does he think he is, Aminajad, or a Saudi Prince? Why is he bothering me with this triviality? I am so important and have so much more to do to destroy this country and then I'll work on making myself king of the world. Look, you'd better answer him or else he'll make a stink somewhere. Dear Professor Eire, The President wants to thank you for your detailed letter filled with all of that marvelous information. We will be making a study of all that you told us. Letters from Americans, especially those who, like you, understand His Eminence's importance to the world, are very significant to Him. We have printed out your letter and we will be considering all you have told us. Rest assured that after we have considered it all, your letter will be recycled for a better, greener America.

It is obvious why "Cubanologists" consider you a heretic. They, along with Cuba-traveling solons, are hypocrites who excoriated the Somoza dynasty in Nicaragua but fawn over the Castro dynasty in Cuba. Kudos, Carlos.
