Someone on another thread related to this subject told me to “get over it”; I wonder if the same advice will be offered to Raúl by this person, since Sr. Castro is obviously not himself getting over it.
Communists can’t win in detante.

“ Industry officials estimate Cuba could potentially buy 500,000 metric tons of wheat annually from the United States, and Kansas is the largest wheat-producing state.
Agricultural commodities such as wheat are exempted from the half-century old embargo. But the administration of George W. Bush instituted costly rules, such as requiring up-front cash payments before commodities leave U.S. ports and that the payments go through banks in other countries, Moran said. The only other exceptions to the embargo have been food and medicinal products.”
Obama and the media will try their best to screw this up but thanks to Jesse Helms they won’t be able to.
