Cuban-American vote hoax prevails

From our friend Dennis Prager:

If you want to understand why President Obama was re-elected despite a largely unsuccessful presidency and almost unprecedentedly high and continuous unemployment, just look at the Cuban-American vote.

In fact, if you want to understand America today -- specifically, why it is in decline -- just look at the Cuban-American vote.

As reported in the Wall Street Journal, "The president captured 48 percent of the Cuban-American vote in Florida -- a record high for a Democrat."

Democratic presidential nominees went from 25 percent of the Cuban-American vote in 2000, to 29 percent in 2004, to 35 percent in 2008 to 48 percent on 2012.

We obviously have a dramatic trend here.

Dennis Prager is a steadfast friend of the intransigent community. Yet he fell victim to the Bendixen hoax like much of the rest of the mainstream media and punditry. Indeed, he cites the "conservative" Wall Street Journal as his source on the Cuban-American Vote (hoax)!

The Bendixen hoax was exposed and re-exposed (with solid documentation) by many intransigents. But as predicted here at Babalu: Pinko propaganda again prevailed.

Again amigos, a perfect example of what we're up against.

Unreal

    Bendixon's propaganda was absolutely abominable! The lie gives Obama a mandate from the Cuban community that he simply does not have, but of course, that's probably the reason for the lie. As Obama continues to capitulate to castro, his actions will be justified and the Bendixon hoax will be quoted.

  • asombra

    It is not Bendixen’s propaganda, hoax, misinformation or whatever you wish to call it; it is that of whoever paid him to generate it, as has been the case before. I’m sure he doesn’t work “pro bono” on his own. Alas, when it comes to producing miserable pieces of shit, Cuba is right up there with the big boys, as Reinaldo Arenas once memorably lamented.

  • Rayarena

    True, Bendixon doesn't work pro bono. Alas, the regime--unlike the exile community--is proactive and has a powerful PR [nay, Goebbelian machinery at its disposal]. What bothers me most of all of this is that we are docile and compliant like sheep. We do absolutely nothing. We accept all forms of infamy and lies. Replace Cubans with any other group [Jews, blacks, latinos, gays, etc...] and have someone like Bendixon misrepresent them. The response would be aggressive and instantaneous. Their institutions whether it be the Anti-defamation League, the NAACP, MALDEF, or the Gay National Task Force would make mincemeat out of Bendixon.

    If we can't fight castro's cronies on our turf, we have no hope inside Cuba. Shame on the Cuban community for being so totally incapable, indifferent and unable.

  • asombra

    Bendixen aside, the fact 40% of Cuban voters went for Obama is STILL appalling. If the Cuban vote had all gone to Romney, Obama would probably have lost Florida, which is what SHOULD have happened, not just for the sake of this election but for the sake of the future. But, as always, Cubans simply cannot get their shit together, and too many of them don't think it matters.

  • FreedomForCuba

    Ditto asombra,

    To witness that significant numbers of Cuban-Americans voted for Obama is insane at least; and I'm not talking about the latest arrivals.

    The latest arrivals bear conclusive proof that the Communist brainwashing implemented by Fidel Castro works.
