Cuban Fidel Castro made a suggestion for American people: vote for a robot this November. Former Cuban President, in his latest op-ed, stated that "90 percent of voting Americans, especially Hispanics, blacks and the growing number of the impoverished middle class, would vote for the robot." While the current US political scene stands divided between Obama and yet unknown definite Republican candidate, a robot would certainly be a novelty. Now, if we are to consider HAL9000 (Artificial Intelligence from 2001:A Space Odyssey) as a serious candidate, we should compare him to the current White House incumbent in a imagined debate.
