Castro's childhood plea to US president

"My good friend Roosevelt," the handwritten letter begins.
"I don't know very English, but I know as much as to write
to you. I like to hear radio and I am very happy because I
heard in it that you will be president for a new period."
The author of the letter then makes a somewhat forward
appeal. "If you like," the 12-year-old wrote, "give me a
ten dollars bill green american, in the letter, because
never,
I have not seen a ten dollars bill green american and I
would like to have one of them."

Boy, they find a way to blame Castro for everything, even
for a letter written by Du Tuyau, without a shadow of a
doubt.
