Lula da Silva: Black U.S. president would be `extraordinary'

[bijou]

HAVANA -- Brazil's president said Friday that the prospect of a black U.S. president ''would be an extraordinary thing,'' but stopped short of endorsing Democrat Barack Obama by name.

... ''Just as Brazil elected a metal worker, Bolivia elected an Indian, Venezuela elected [socialist leader Hugo] Chávez and Paraguay a bishop, I think that it would be an extraordinary thing if, in the largest economy in the world, a black were elected president of the United States,'' he said.

I think that it would be an extraordinary thing if, in the largest economy in the world, a black were elected president of the United States,'' he said.

That way we can truly see how bad Socialism is.  Because in this case "black" means "black socialist."

So it'd be extraordinary.  BFD.  That does not equate to 'good for the country' and I don't give a shit what a Brazilian thinks.
