'''Fidel Castro''' is the Communist President of [[Cuba]]. He steals the trillion-dollar bill from [[Mr. Burns]] to solve his country's financial crisis, before kicking Mr. Burns, [[Homer]] and [[Smithers]] off of the island.

== History ==
Castro informs his comrades that Cuba will have to abandon Communism because the country is completely bankrupt. He prepares to phone the Americans to tell them they have won, even though they tried to kill him, which he believes is not so bad, because they named a street after him in San Francisco, although he is shocked to discover that the street is homosexual-only. However, [[Homer]], [[Mr. Burns]] and [[Smithers]] arrive and Burns attempts to buy Cuba with a trillion-dollar bill. Although it is not for sale, Burns asks to live on the island instead. Castro asks to see the trillion-dollar bill and after persuasion from Homer, Burns lets him see it, only for Castro to steal it before forcing the three to leave.<ref>"[[The Trouble with Trillions]]"</ref>

Homer watched a talk by Castro and cheered during it.<ref>"[[Havana Wild Weekend]]"</ref>

He once dated [[Agnes Skinner]].<ref>''[[The Principal of the Thing]]''</ref> He is also one of the many people on "[[Ned Flanders|Ned's]] List of Laudable Lefties".<ref>''[[Flanders' Book of Faith]]''</ref>
