i don't think that cuba can be considered a dictatorship. not so much about venezuela but that's none of my business - and for the record, not of the US too.

When Fidel was in charge, it absolutely was a dictatorship. That his brother took over from him is a little clue to that fact. Now I'm less certain. Since the Communist party in Cuba has some actually well meaning people in it, there's a possibility that with the old guard dead or retired they may cease being a dictatorship.
