Reply #12: My husband went to Cuba with Venceremos several years ago. [View All]

He says it was an awesome experience and wants to go again someday. Frankly, I'd consider going with him this next time simply because I think it is about time the US pulls its head out of its collective backside when it comes to Cuba.

I never cease to be amazed that we give China and several other nations "preferred trade" status, but somehow Cuba is the ONE place Americans aren't even supposed to freaking visit--let alone trade with. Do these guys supporting the ban have a clue WHY this whole ban even began? Do they REALIZE that our policies have contributed to the problems rather than helping to solve them?

I have to wonder what reason Kerry has for his opinion on Cuba? Does anyone know what his logic is and why he supports a continued ban?
