I don’t know if there is any chance of this happening but I figured that the CSA could use a few ministers in case it gets a Stalinist government set up there. Given Stalin’s purported viewpoint that the African American population in the US was a nation which deserved national liberation and a state covering a good portion of the American south, it seems to me that several prominent African American political figures from that time period would make excellent Stalinist ministers for the CSA. I’m not saying that the cabinet should be completely African American but there should be some representation in a Stalinist government. Here are some of my suggestions for a Stalinist/Leninist/LWR CSA
I’d suggest Mary church Terrell as an Ideological Crusader foreign Minister

Paul Robeson would make a nice “Man of the People” security minister he might potentially be a good Popular Figurehead Head of State as well
http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/USArobeson.htm
William Patterson could work as a naïve optimist Head of Government
http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/USApattersonW.htm
W.E.B. Dubois would make a fine Die-hard Rerfomer head of state
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W.E.B._DuBois
A Phillip Randolph would make a fine Ambitious Union Boss head of Government but he’d be more LWR than Stalinist and was often very hostile towards Stalinism he also might make a good industrial specialist minister of inteligence
http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/USArandolph.htm
And while he died in 1936, Oliver Law might make a fine army head for a stalinist CSA just like he does for a Stalinist USA. Anyway these are just some suggestions
Additionally here is an editorial that mentions a little of the Stalinist debate that the south was a African American homeland
