From the article:
“Although negotiations had been brewing for some time, the first face-to-face meeting between Cuban and American officials took place in Canada in June 2013. Many of the ensuing meetings took place in Canada, but senior administration officials said that the Vatican played an important role in bringing the sides together as well. When Obama visited the Vatican in March, he and Pope Francis discussed the issue, and the Pope sent Obama and Castro personal letters to encourage them to press forward with negotiations.”

The Great American Dictator Obama has spoken. He is advancing the DREAMs of our citizens.. Maybe our Cuban Americans might need to keep running.

I am not sure why we still have an embargo against Cuba, but I can see us removing it and the sudden influx of captialism destroying the leadership
That would be so nice

I notice it didn’t take long for him to get around to mentioning all the money that could be shipped out of America in the form of remittances.

It will. The onslaught of capitalism will turn Cuba into another resort destination. Soon, tears will be shed about the beauty of the island being ‘destroyed’ by development and casinos. Starbucks on every corner, etc.

What I see happening with the borders open to anyone, and now making happy with Cuba, Zero is going to try and over throw this government and take it to a King and Queen type government with him as King and Moose-butt as Queen....
If he gets enough people in our country to overthrow the votes that AMERICANS would vote, he could do this...
Just saying.....

The American Dictator says he speaks for America. This grand project was crafted in a dark basement and is being forced down our collective throats.

I don’t see why this is a bad thing either. It’s hypocritical for us to engage with China but shut Cuba off.
To: Biggirl
So, OBAMA is now in charge of the FAIR PLAY FOR CUBA committee?
