Actually you are wrong. I live in South Florida, and many are super happy.

I saw it on the news. They disagree with better ties with Cuba. They know first hand what the Cuban government is about and do not like it in any way. Every Cuban person I have talked to has expressed this to me.



Polls now show that 51% of Cuban Americans are in favor of opening the doors to Cuba.

Back to part 2 of my question: Why?

Majority of Cuban Americans say embargo has not worked....52 percent oppose continuing the embargo.

Granted it is a small majority, but it is non the less a majority.

I've lived in South Florida for 20+ years so I've talked to quite a few. The ones I have spoken to have all said Cuba sucks. The news story corroborates this. The news story basically said that some Cubans disagree which is true according to that poll. They interviewed a few of them also.



I went to Cuba this May.
It was great!
The people were wonderful!

Whoever you were talking to is a nitwit.

The news story said 52%....

You are wrong, no matter how much you want to be right. Your opinion is factually wrong.

So, again, WHY shouldn't we open the doors to Cuba?

They are not a threat to the USA.

We have open relationships with every country that we have ever gone to War with (except North Korea and they are the ones that don't to open up to the world).

The country were almost all the 9/11 terrorist came from, Saudi Arabia, is one of our friends.

The closed door policy with Cuba has failed for over 50 years.

So, give me the reason WHY we should end the embargo? And don't say Cuban Americans they are not the only Americans. In fact, they are only about 1/2 of 1% of the USA, 52% of which want to end the embargo... why should U.S. policy be dictated by roughly 1/4 of 1% of our population.

Why?

Wait! Fact check your sources!?

Why would anyone do that?

It is much easier to accept the BS and then pretend like it is real.

Only some. And if we had not provided further reasoning for the Castro's, Cuba's politics would have fallen years ago. Instead they dug in & we stayed in the false dominos red scare mind set that has done- well................. nothing.

About time. Good to see the change for the people of Cuba. May it get better now.
