The old codger only got to see what the Castros wanted him to see....’definitely a propaganda visit.’

“Cuba’s a poor country,” he marveled. “But they have a lower child mortality rate than us….their public health system is quite remarkable.”

They always tout this child mortality hog wash but never tell that in Cuba over 30% of pregnancies are terminated by abortion. Their public health system is a shambles. He was only taken to the political elites hospitals.
