He's Still Second...At Least on Paper

I received clarification from the Cuban government about whether Raul was First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party.

The e-mail states that their "Commander and Chief, Fidel" (shocking, since that is a title that Raul now has), is still First Secretary and that Raul is still Second Secretary.

So much for that little news item. But at least now we know that Fidel is First Secretary (at least in title).
