Bush Unveils Measures to Pressure Cuba's Castro [/URL]
I know there are people here who are politically more engaged than I am, so I'd like to hear your possible insight into the matter. And please, keep it clean. Without naming anyone, try to keep your unresearched, out-of-the-blue opinions out of it, they do nothing to further the discussion.
Do you consider this a stunt for Bush to gain votes from the "gusanos" in Florida?

But the people who are, who have come here via whatever means they could seem to be pleased with what bush said he would do.

Because the views of the people who have "escaped" Castro's "tyranny" do not necessarily represent the views of the entire cuban people. These gusanos [i]could[/i] well be the people responsible (in part, at least) for many assassination attempts against Castro and other Cuban officials.

I should go for a trip to cuba some time
Sure, Cuba got on America's black-list for the missle crisis, and embarrassed the US with the Bay of Pigs debacle, but to continue such a vendetta is pointless.

Actually i think Cuba deserves a break. They're already living in poverty and all the US does is impose terriffs and restrictions that further pushes them into poverty... If the US wants castro out, they're going about it the wrong way. Again i think the US is pushing it's opinions on another country. I think it's high time we just let them be, they're not hurting anyone, and all we're doing is hurting their innocent population.
[B]IMO America's foreign policy of embargos against Cuba is highly unfair and frankly unconscionable.
