Miami.- I have lived in Miami since November 29, 1960, and now
I’m 68 years old. I was 13 when I arrived with my family,
much like almost 130,000 Cubans who left their country in that
year as a result of the radical changes made by the Cuban
revolutionary process and war threats issued by the United States
that were partially carried out in April 1961, five months later,
with the Bay of Pigs invasion, the defeat of which those 55 years
ago will be soon celebrated by the Cuban people in revolution.

Barack Obama was born on August 4, 1961, and not in Miami. After
living in that city for so many years I know very well that
“clear monument”, as Obama described Miami, calling
it an example of hope for the Cubans, especially the young
people,” in his well-timed and much-quoted speech of March
22 in Havana’s Gran Teatro.

It constitutes a superhuman effort to lead any people in times of crisis. Without them, the changes would be impossible. In a meeting such as this, which brings together more than a thousand representatives chosen by the revolutionary people themselves, who delegated their authority to them, for all it represents the greatest honor they have received in their lives, to which is added the privilege of being a revolutionary which is the product of our own consciousness

Why did I become a socialist, or more plainly, why did I become a communist? That word that expresses the most distorted and maligned concept in history by those who have the privilege of exploiting the poor, dispossessed ever since they were deprived of all the material wealth that work, talent and human energy provide. Since when does man live in this dilemma, throughout time without limit. I know you do not need this explanation but perhaps some listeners do.
