The reference to the great helmsman seems to have passed you by slightly.

Subject: RE: [OPE] Cuba After Fidel Castro
Hi Paul C:
It is the exile ('gusano') community in Miami and
US imperialism which is responsible for perpetuating the
outlandish reactionary fantasy that when F. Castro dies,
Cuba will be thrown into a "crisis". This misunderstands the
role of Castro, the character of the government and its
domestic support, and the level of commitment of the Cuban
people to the revolution.
When Fidel Castro dies the country will go into mourning
- as he is without a doubt the most popular national leader
in the world in his own nation. After the speeches, editorials,
and tears, Cuba will go on ... the same path.
In solidarity, Jerry
> The crisis always occurs on the demise of the 'great helmsman'.
