Ron Paul

"Actually, I believe we're at a time where we even ought to talk to Cuba and trade and travel to Cuba. But let me — let me tell you — let me tell you why — let me tell you why we have a problem in South America and Central America: because we've been involved in their internal affairs for so long. We have been meddling in their business. We create the Chavezes of the world, we create the Castros of the world by interfering and creating chaos in their countries, and they respond by throwing out their leader."

FRED ON RIVALS, GUANTANAMO, MSNBC (12/5/07)

"I'm going to make sure that [Castro] didn't survive 10 U.S. presidents. Castro is unique in many respects. He represents the only non-democratic, at least, elected government in the hemisphere. He is uniquely brutal. He is still tyrannizing his own people. He lures the vulnerable and the naive Americans down there and puts on shows for them and they come back and do his propaganda. There are not many people who can pull that sort of thing off. He's obviously in bad health. That situation, probably, is in God's hands. He will probably be succeeded by someone who's no better than him, and that is Raul. And we should treat Raul with the same contempt that we show Castro, including keeping the embargo on Cuba." Associate Press (GOP Debates 12/10/07)
