Cuban immigrant Maximo Alvarez delivers emotional speech about American dream at RNC
2020-08-26
[Today] In one of the most emotional moments of the first night of the Republican National Convention, Maximo Alvarez, a Cuban immigrant living in Miami, told his family's story and reflected on the American dream.

Alvarez took the RNC stage on a night shared with fellow speakers Kimberly Guilfoyle, Donald Trump Jr., former governor of South Carolina Nikki Haley, and Sen. Tim Scott also of South Carolina.

To start, Alvarez detailed the experience of his father, who only had a sixth grade education, he said.

#4  Perhaps Kim Jong-un should visit Cuba for its "fantastic" medical system. Or, at least offer up his body for 'research'.

#3  If you want to know about socialism, ask a Cuban (who fled). Citizens of Venezuela are catching up fast though.

And yet I once met a Cuban who spent time in North Korea and happily returned to Cuba. So YMMV.

#2  Probably lost on the socialists, who just know in their heart that this time we'll get it right.
