He gets a lot of south Florida Cuban votes, and they don't want this unless the Cuban government gives them back their ancestors land.
Sorry, common good is served by this.
They aren't getting that land back. Any Miami Cuban hoping for that is wasting time.
The way I see it, why should they? If we can lease 45 square miles of pristine Cuban coastline for 4 grand a year in an antiquated agreement that Cubans were forced to sign at gunpoint, they should continue to hold expropriated American property without compensation.
And how will this end the repression???? All this is doing is propping up the Castro regime with Gringo money. You know, the same way we prop up the Chinese communist regime.
Name one single concession Cuba is giving us? Are they going to turn over Victor Manuel Gerena or Assata Shakur?
Our job isn't to end repression. Our job is to trade goods and services. We trade with lots of repressive regimes.
Their concession should be to allow American goods to be exported to their country.
If they should turn over Gerena or Shakur, then you'd better be careful what you wish for.
Their list of criminals in this country is a hell of a lot longer than just two people. A lot of people in Miami had better get ready to be extradited.
How about if Cuba wants us to extradite members of Batista's secret police that are still alive and have committed crimes in Cuba. Gonna give turn them over to Castro?
I'd bet Obama idolizes Fidel. They have a lot of common goals for their people and country.
Is there a reason why you have a problem with this new revelation? Is there a reason why you don't have a problem with doing business with communist China?
I would love to travel to Cuba while it still has the mid-50s look and feel. In a short while, it will be overrun with American culture and that will be lost forever.
Yes, mid-century communist bloc culture is so much better.
Gambling, prostitution, cheap hotels and clubs with slave labor, yeehaw!
