Noa, you are obviously too well educated to be Elian. If he had your smarts, he would not have let his mother take him to sea on such an unseaworthy vessel.
Actually I am two famous people. Since Che was murdered so long ago, I grew this beard, mostly to hide the persistant dour look on my face. That is why I frequent this site - to get some insight into my long-term depression. Trust me; it is situational! But myself and your president play this little game, where he comes to my country and I go to yours, made up to look like each other. It was actually myself who lied to the Senate subcommittee, and agents of your government know that there are actually TWO sources of DNA on the blue dress. Fortunately, we have them all controled by the secret videotapes we made of their own philandering. That antic was my litte way of getting revenge for the itching dust on my toilet seat and the exploding cigars.
But please don't confuse our humble socialist model with nationalism. I know your government likes to criticize our human rights record, but your government actually has a greater percentage of its population in prison than does ours. Maybe spend a week in one of your prisons, then come talk to me about human rights.
We have never attempted to invade your country as you did ours, and many of us here in power are genuinely concerned about your organized criminal organizations regaining control of our hotels and tourist industry as they did before our little revolution. Your criminal organizations already dally in your legal pharmaceutical market and fund their operations against my allies by distributing similar substances illegally in your cities and small towns.
Maybe your should come visit us sometime, via Mexico City, and witness one of our open elections for municipal government positions. Our people are really rather contented, until they get a phone call from a Miami relative teling them freedom is a trip to Walt Disney World.
But no, I am hardly famous. Brad Pitts - now he is famous. Mostly I am just a forgotten anachornism left over from a century when the shed blood of countless millions had watered the hope of justice and equality.
