If only all ungrateful Hollywood Actors would think like Andy Garcia

As a foster parent to two peter pan boys, this was the greatest joy of my life, and when their parents and siblings came in 1965 my joy has been extended to see them assimilate as Americans.

He summarizes the experience of hundreds of thousands of cubans scattered throughout the world, with the voice of a sincere and decent man. Worthy of the cuban identity and a true gentleman.

Love him. Great decent person. Never forgets his roots and is a true American.

He is so down to earth, despite of being famous and wealthy. Great human being, great father, great husband and great actor. He has been my secret crush for 35 years,- not just because he is good looking and a great actor,- but because of the goodness in him. Never a scandal and he lives for his wife and daughters. What can be more exciting/sexy than that?!! ❤️

Such a beautiful and appreciative American.

What a man ...

I grew up in Hialeah, Florida, where many Cuban children ended up living after Fidel Castro took over Cuba and began systematically murdering people by firing squads, and imprisoning people whom he suspected had been Batista supporters or who were against his communist regime. The courage, strength, determination, pride, ingenuity, perseverance, and dedication of the Cuban people was evident and changed me forever. I learned Spanish, starting at age 5, and became aware of what it meant to lose everything and be forced to start over in a strange land- with a new language, new culture, and without your family or anything familiar. I remember simple things, like the children had never had peanut butter and didn't know what it was. I learned about priorities and freedom. Socialism, communism, marxism, or similar attempts to govern are ultimately just another attempt to control. I only wish the young people in our country could spend time in a place where you cannot speak your mind, or live where you choose, or earn enough money through your efforts to live comfortably- like Cuba is still like, to learn the truth. I have been to Cuba. All these years later, fear reigns, not freedom. Tourists who cannot speak the language see only what the government wants them to see. They need the dollars you see. In Havana, I saw store fronts set up like a pet shop. It appeared that there were dogs being groomed. I stepped into the store, and before I was quickly escorted out, I saw that there was 1 dog, and there wasn't even water or soap, just a woman moving her arms, pretending to bathe the dog. It is all a front, a facade. It's like a movie set. It's not real, only intended to give a false impression. I only hope that people see the truth. Without freedom, life is only half living, if that.

We love you Andy! You have always represented our Cuban exile community excellently. God Bless.

Love Andy, wonderful actor and human being. His voice sounded like he was crying. And I can understand him so well, I lived in 2 communist countries before coming to America. Never want to live in a third one.

I'm so fed up... As far as I saw, Powel was marked as a "crazy woman" here and someone that was fired from Trump lawer's buffet, so I don't know... I whish Trump could win for the good not only of US but the west culture I'd say. Can you recommend me some youtube channels or places to find information? I use to check with Crowder, but sometimes he seems to be a little bit overacting.

I loved him in "For Love or Country, the Arturo Sandoval Story". ❤️

His experience is the experience of all of our family members who escaped that island prison in order to be free here and make a life in this great country. Those of us who were born here owe them all we have.

Great Guy..👍

Play this one for your kids. We all need to hear more of these stories that illustrate what makes America great.

Damn, him getting emotional is getting me emotional.

Love him , his acting, his voice ❤️❤️❤️

I'm so glad we were able to leave Cuba in 1959 with my daughter and carrying my twin sons when I was 7 months pregnant because if they were born in Cuba they may not have let us leave with them because they would have been Cuban citizens and that wasn't what we wanted for them.So im so happy we left

Es... sumamente triste dejar el país propio ...sin tener motivos políticos ...imagino el dolor de dejarlo porque allí no se puede vivir. No es mi caso. Suiza me esperará siempre y yo sé que regresaré. Es insostenible a veces estar tan lejos y deber adaptarse a TODO.

Big things (Andy Garcia) really DO come in small packages (Cuba). Gracias, "Fidzie"!! ( Fidel )

Bernie Sanders has praised Castro many times and his regime for what Castro did for the people of Cuba. He can't deny it so he doesn't but says it wasn't all bad. If you don't despise what Bernie stands for move to Cuba or Venezuela and please leave this Country ASAP.

The United States will definitely need to experience a lengthy reckoning over its incessant interference with the domestic political affairs of Cuba during the first half of the twentieth century, which would lead to the overthrow of the inherently repressive régime of Fulgencio Batista.
