Interesting concept, and one that never occurred to me and most others,
I suspect.

How Cuba’s Bitter Sons Shut Down the U.S. Government

In Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz, the Tea Party found the perfect pawns.
BY Achy Obejas

It’s the open wound of Fidel Castro’s revolution being poked at by Jim
DeMint, that makes Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz do what they do.

Left out of all the thousands of words written about the GOP's
government shutdown, about the party's nihilistic willingness to crash
the world economy, about Republicans' laser focus on obliterating the
Affordable Care Act (ACA), was the fact that two of the poster boys for
this suicide mission were the sons of Cuban exiles whose fears about
socialism were willingly and willfully exploited by the radial Right.

Make no mistake: It's the open wound of Fidel Castro's revolution being
poked at by Jim DeMint, the former South Carolina senator and mastermind
behind the shutdown, that makes Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz do what they do.
