fidel was good for cuba, they had corrupt mafia aholes in charge of casinos before. People in florida who hated Fidel cuz he correctly took their ill gotten gains were going to vote Trump anyway.

Conquest of Cuba was the first foreign policy target of the early US.

you know that it if it's Bernie vs. Trump, Bernie will win hands-down. The only reason Trump won the last Clown Show is that HRC is such a repugnant POS. Donald Trump is literally an idiot. You realize that, don't you?

Bernie is irreverent, this is about the revolution.

He is about pushing the Overton window to the left, much faster than what would normally occur.

McGovern got crushed by Nixon, yet many of the policies espoused by McGovern ended up being pushed by Nixon, and subsequent generations of democrats now are far to the left of his ideas, as well as Republicans

Bernie is doing what the revolution demands, which has nothing to do with him defeating Trump.

Now i don't think it's impossible Bernie couldn't win, but more of the masses must be made to accept and endorse these ideas even if its only through silence. And make no mistake, as is stated at the end of this ad, the revolution has begun.

Also, Cuba was ostracized by the majority of the world for like 50 yrs and managed to maintain a relatively decent standard of living, even after the collapse of the USSR, for the entire country(except for that famine). How? Through its socialized healthcare and education.
