Thomas Paine (1737–1809) was a radical writer who emigrated from England to America in 1774. Just two years later, early in 1776, Paine published Common Sense, a hugely influential pamphlet that convinced many American colonists that the time had finally come to break away from British rule. In Common Sense, Paine made a persuasive and passionate argument to the colonists that the cause of independence was just and urgent. The first prominent pamphleteer to advocate a complete break with England, Paine successfully convinced a great many Americans who'd previously thought of themselves as loyal, if disgruntled, subjects of the king.

They all have a dictator, often run with a communism plan, the public has little say
I dont understand the quistion can you explain what your tey to ask?
Pretty much, the Communists were much stronger than the Nationalists. Their public support was strong due to promised land reform for peasants and their military organization was more experienced. The Nationalists had weak, public support and their military was ineffective, corrupt leadership and poor morale. They were an easy beat.
Hope this helps :)
