During his remarks, Rafael Cruz described seeing "socialism at work" during President Jimmy Carter's administration, arguing that his experience in Cuba gave him the ability to identify socialist policies at work.
"I hear people all the time say, 'This will never happen in America.' It is happening in America," Cruz said. "It is happening in America, and our rights are being eroded more and more and more every day."
Rafael Cruz, who left Cuba to study in Texas, later became a critic of Castro's.
During his Iowa speech, he called on pastors like himself to rally support behind conservative policies, saying it was "high time pastors stop hiding behind the pulpit."
Later this month, Cruz will join former Sen. Jim DeMint, the president of the conservative Heritage Foundation, on a tour to advocate defunding Obama's health care law.

(30,244 posts)He's dangerous because he is smart. I'm not surprised that his dad is a Republican, most of his generation thought that Republicans were tougher with Castro. I did find offensive Cruz Sr. comparing Obama to Castro. His son probably thinks the same way but is more savvy than his dad.
