Several years later, it was Che Guevara, the Argentine-born Cuban revolutionary. He was not only handsome, but he had a Jesus vibe about him as well — so much so that Esquire magazine put Che in Jesus’ seat at the Last Supper. A colleague reminisced with me about his encounter with Jerry Rubin. Jerry had grown up in Cincinnati, in a Reform synagogue.
