First, if the Cuban-Americans in this country suddenly left for home with their money in their pockets, Florida would be in line for some of O's bailout money. And, your cheap vacation to Cuba would become much more expensive, if you could get a room at all.
But, Vietnam is different. We lose 45,000 American Soldiers there, leave, and then normalize trade and travel several years later?? No problem.
What is the difference?
The difference is Politics, a stubborn anti-Castro element in South Florida who will not forget, and Political parties who will not ignore the votes available in South Florida and elsewhere.
U.S. policy toward Cuba has been a joke since the 1980's.
I just wish that it had been somebody else's Whitehouse who tries to correct it.
