Answer
I will deal with each point in turn.

1, 3, and 6 go togther. Che was undoubtly influenced by a journey he took across S. America. He saw the poor and could feel sorry for them. By the time he got back to Argentina, he gave up his medicial pratice to fight for revolution. This led him to team up with Castro to found the Cuban state.

2. I really don't think luck had anything to do with it. To me, it was more of destiny for him. It had to happen.

4. Revoluton was clearly an interest. It is said he followed the Spanish Civil War in his youth.

5. He had many accomplishments. The big one was the founding of the Cuban state. w/o him, Castro would be dead or out of power by now. Another was he gave up a cozy job in the Cuban Gov't to fight for Revolution...just like what Trotsky did in Russia.

Good luck.
