My study of proper names is simple: How many people from Generation Yare now in the mechanisms of power in Cuba?. It seems to me that if Iraise a stone, Yunieskys, and Yoardanka Yusimi appear everywhere. Onthe street, heads turn every time when calling someone with a namesimilar to mine, but I do not see such a profusion of "the letter Y"in positions that decide the direction of the country. If only thelist of the National Assembly--which will meet in a few weeks--showedthat crazy letter that precedes the zeta. Nor among managers,administrators or business managers, is the capricious "Y" seen. What if from the next to the last letter of the alphabet--anextravagent letter so little used in our Spanish--launched a cryagainst the preceding vowels and consonants. I will say something like"The time of" Y" has arrived!. It is high time that the alphabetbegins with the end!"

========STATEMENT EXCERPT=========== Statement by Cynthia McKinney, Power to the People Candidate for U.S. President, on the nomination of Barack Obama as the Democratic Party's Presidential Candidate in 2008
On Saturday, June 7, 2008, Hillary Clinton announced that her 2008 presidential bid is over, making Barack Obama the first-ever Black presidential nominee of a major party in the history of the United States.
Congratulations to Senator Obama for achieving such a feat!
. . . Many of us never thought we would see in our lifetime a Black person with a real possibility of becoming President of the United States.
The fact that this is now possible is . . . also a sign of the deep discontent among the American people, and particularly among African Americans, with the corporate-dominated, business-as-usual politics that has prevailed in Washington for too many years. . . .
While congratulating Senator Obama for a feat well done, I would also like to bring home the very real need for change and a few of the issues that must be addressed for the change needed in this country to be real. . . .
I have accepted as the platform of the Power to the People Campaign, the 10-Point Draft Manifesto of the Reconstruction Movement, a grouping of Black activists who came together in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita to advocate for public policy initiatives that address the plight of Blacks and other oppressed peoples in this country. . . .
The people deserve an open and honest debate on these issues and more. I encourage the Democratic Party and its new presumptive nominee, Senator Obama, to embra
CLINTON IS NOW BACKING UP FOR OBAMA. THAT MEANS SHE WANTS TO SEE CHANGE TO, AND THAT CHANGE STARTS WITH HAVING A AFRICAN AMERICAN DEMOCRAT TO TAKE OFFICE.HE WOULD BE A GREAT BOSS FOR ME AND MY PEERS.
