Does absolute power ALWAYS corrupt absolutely?

[WhyNot]

I should point out that Guevara leaving Cuba was not necessarily a voluntary move. Around that time Castro was purging his government of anyone he saw as a potential threat, and while Guevara was not particularly popular he did have a very loyal military following. Guevara likely saw himself as in danger and left Cuba as a result. Proof of this was when Fidel made public the letter that Guevara had written, just in case he was caught. The letter was not meant to be made public, and by releasing it Fidel essentially exiled Guevara.

So no, Guevara did no leave to be a poor fighter, he left to be a live fighter.

Thank you for this information. I will add it to my (admittedly small) databank on Guevera.
