I still question WHEN he died. I don't think it is completely impossible he DID die years ago. So much secrecy has surrounded him that it is hard to tell.
600+ assassination attempts by the CIA proving to be unsuccessful. He's a figure I would like to read more on, was supportive of Palestinians and sent doctors to Pakistan when they suffered a horrific earthquake in 2006. Plus his model of social support etc.
Obama's made conciliatory gestures to improve the relationship between the US/Cuba but I imagine that'll go complete the other way once Trump is in charge.
