‘I Did My Best to Stop American Foreign Policy’:

Bernie Sanders on US anti-Communism in Latin America.

In a nutshell, where stood many Democrats.

We had no real stake in Vietnam.

The dominoes were never going to fall all the way to California.

But Latin America is a lot closer, and I personally remember being taught as a student to shelter under the desk during the Cuban missile crisis.

I found it shocking and offensive that Democrats were so indulgent toward outright Communists in Chile, in Nicaragua, and elsewhere in the region.
