The isolation to me props up the Cuban government. Free trade seems to always brings these radicals to a more moderate stance.
China in particular has significantly changed with free trade and access to internet and such

See Vietnam. We have normal relations with them and they are becoming a solid trading partner. 92 million new customers.
It should be the same with Cuba.

You mean like Vietnam?

Don't make those vacation plans just yet, this won't allow for tourism to Cuba. You'll still have to go through Canada.

Barry hasn't done much in his time that I support, but I'd buy him a beer over this one.

Cuba's a blast to visit now. If we normalize relations it's just another caribbean tourist destination

Agee with you and support normalization with Cuba.
Just wish we would have outwaited the Castro regime.
