El Presidente announced his resignation today, turning over power to brother Raul. President Bush said he hoped this would speed along Cuba's move to Democracy. I'm wondering though, will the people of Cuba seek our help? We haven't done so hot with making Iraq a democracy. Wondering what the people down there are thinking?
I've never quite understood why we kept Cuba under such an embargo for so long, especially after the fall of the communist bloc. The missle crisis happened almost 50 years ago, it's not like the island nation is a threat. As usual, it's the people that suffered under the decisions made by the powers that be.
