Stay tuned and we'll see if we've been manipulated once again or if today is the birth date of Cuba's liberty.

Cuba isn't going to be liberated just because Castro dies. Castro has his brother and other cronies to keep things in Cuba pretty much as they are after he passes.

I pray you are incorrect but I know little of the inner working of the communist machine in Cuba and how they maintain power.

Though I don't have any hard data to back it up, my gut feeling has always been that Cubans have been waiting for Castro to die before overthrowing the commies. It seems as if they have Stockholm Syndrome.

I have a feeling you're correct; meet the new boss...same as the old boss.
