Cuban Rafael Cruz, a pro-Batista ...
By Cruz's own account, he was anti-Batista, was thrown in jail by Batista's government, and consequently fled to the US in 1957, where he attended UT. He gave Pro-Castro speeches in Austin until, in 1959, he visited Cuba and realized what Castro really was.
... the Dallas / New Orleans connection ...
Cruz graduated from UT with a degree in Mathematics and Chemical Engineering. He worked in the oil industry. That's the reason he lived in NO and later in Canada, and why he visited (or lived in) Dallas.

W. Bush was the President of on offshore oil drilling company initially based in Midland, TX, and from 1959, in Houston. Of course,unless LB is suggesting that those three were triggermen, their whereabouts on the day JFK was shot would not matter much (and given their life at the time, not recalling where they were on a particular day, even one so newsworthy, is not surprising, let alone sinister).
