wikipedia refresher on benevides sounds like a playbook ......

Benavides oversaw an authoritarian regime and built a strong relationship with wealthy Peruvian business owners.[1][2][3][4] The primary concerns of the new Government were: to resolve the conflict with Colombia (peace was negotiated in May 1934); and to resolve internal political agitation (Tauro, vol 1, p. 266; Orrego, p. 894) for which purpose, Benavides outlawed the Alianza Popular Revolucionaria Americana (APRA), arguing that it was an international party, prohibited by the Peruvian Constitution, and repressed the Communist Party for the same reason. Benavides called presidential elections in 1936; but the results were annulled as they favored the investment of Luis Antonio Eguiguren who, according to the Government, had the vote of the APRA.

Reiner made his television acting debut at age 14, on the series Manhunt. He attended Beverly Hills High School and studied at the UCLA Film School. At age 19, Reiner and actor Larry Bishop were part of an improv group, and performed as the opening act for Carmen McRae at the Hungry I club in San Francisco.

In the late 1960s, Reiner acted in bit roles on several television shows including Batman, That Girl, The Andy Griffith Show, Room 222, Gomer Pyle – USMC, and The Beverly Hillbillies.
