If they were really honorable they would have presented their backgrounds truthfully and not tried to pass themselves off as the children of exiles from Castro.
I have a specialty with Cuban history, so I follow events linked to Cuba closely. I believed Marco Rubio’s story - he was exposed by Spanish language media in Miami.
The minute I saw Ted Cruz for the first time - on tv during his acceptance speech, when he described his father as having been tortured in Cuba, I could tell he was not being truthful. The newspaper article laid it all out.
Re your remarks about Batista, you are could not be more wrong in comparing him to Obama - in the first place, Cuba of the late 1950s was prosperous, not depressed - it was the golden age of Cuban music. And there was a powerful opposition media that criticized the government constantly - not what one usually finds in a “brutal dictatorship”.
And you are also completely wrong in saying that the Cuban people didn’t think much of Castro - the idiots welcomed him with delirious fervor -
You are being like the silly blacks in this country, who wanted a black man in the white house so badly that they accepted one who had a white mother and who was raised by a white family. I would love to see the son of Cuban refugees representing a US state - there are hundreds of thousands to choose from, beginning with the Diaz-Balart family. So I do find it so very peculiar that out of a million Cuban refugees from Castro, the two that get elected - aren’t, but tried to pretend that they were.
First bumpo, who in the H#ll are you to pretend to know what or how I think of anything.. I too have a keen interest in the Cuban experience, for very personal reasons..
The folks that welcomed Castro were the flock, that suffered under the Batista heavy hand, not the insiders, much the same as the trolls that followed Obama.. Those that were involved in the Batista government, or on the fringes, already knew what a tyrant Castro was with his brutal thugs..
To say that the average man was thrilled with Cuba because of their popular music made their personal lives better because of it is as laughable, and credible as you are, that is to say, NOT!
You are a poster that I will place on my watch list.. I want to find out what your real mission might be, because you can’t be this inept without a reason..
Now hit the road my friend and don’t bother me with a response, because I have wasted enough time with you already..
