This is not a joke! It's all over the news. Cuban President Fidel Castro had just submitted his resignation as Cuba's President.
Fidel Castro has been Cuba's president since 1959. Now at the age of 81, Fidel decides it is time to call it quits.
What does the United States have to say about that?
U.S. Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte announced that despites Castro's resignation the U.S. embargo on Cuba will remain in place.
What do you think about that? Post your comments.

the embargo of us on cuba is a good sign to every body's eyes that show very clearly how the us politic orientation is all the time managing to private all the countries of latin america and caribean from developing.a comparison between cuba and the other countries of the region can easily illustrate what i mean by that.
i´m understand ´´man is not god´´ but fidel makes more than a man, we must give him the respect, wathever fidel castro stay the man of the xx siecle and part of xxi, as say voltaire ´´le genie n´a qu´un siecle´´.
i am very happy for him, because nobody puts him down. he steps down voluntary.
after nearly 50 years in power, he accomplished alot for the cubans people.for example, before castro, cuba was like a third world country, the people were without good education, without healthcare, the leaders were greedy like our leaders in haiti. taking the wealth of the country for their owns benefit. now look at cuba, 99% of the people are educated,they have good doctors all over the world.of cause he wasn't perfect, no one is. of cause he was a dictator, he was a good one for the benifits of his country.i believe, castro once said, the world will judge me, but history will defend me. history will definitely defend him. if it wasn't for castro, who would cares for the cubans, they would have been like a mexican.illegal immigrants.
who cares ........ living here in florida where i see cubans crying and complaining about castro ...i don't understand why they can't just take him out of power like us haitian have done in the past with no arms......for what it is worth ....again who cares .....castro has more than 95% of cuba litterate....who cares .....not me
this is castro time, oneday president bush has to be leave.the power.
the bible sais one god has to be leave on his tron forever.
on the bible heb 13:6 bible said jesus jesus is the same yesterday to day
