Which reminds us when Castro came to power, he wasted no time telling Cuba he was a commie.. He confiscated all weapons and then he took possession of all property,.. homes and businesses
Castro took the time to give an interview to Ed Sullivan.

Ed Sullivan interviews Fidel Castro on January 11, 1959 in Cuba shortly after the Batista regime is overthrown during the Cuban Revolution.
I remember that. Castro told Sullivan he was NOT a Communist. He lied. He was commie to the core.
He came into town riding on an open convertible.. The crowd following him.. Cheering..
A few days later.. Doctors and wealthy were boating. Swimming.. Some not making it.. Florida was where they were headed..
There is no Place else
The people in Cuba did not know he was commie.. And did not know how nuch worse it would become. That island went down fast.. Hope was gone.
