They will never be able. if the history of Communist nations is any example. to go to a ballot box and cast a vote for a ballot on which there are more than one candidate and determine their own future. The gentleman. I think. has hit a very poignant point when he spoke about the Cuban who said. "I had a place to go to." meaning he had a place to take refuge in. namely. the United States. We have become a nation of refugees. and they are refugeed from nations and from people whom we have abandoned. We abandoned the freedom fighters at the Bay of Pigs. and today a large portion of the Cuban population resides in the United States. The Government of Cuba resides in Moscow. as the gentleman from Illinois says.
