Dean Leans Toward Supporting Cuban Embargo (WTF????) [View All]

I expected Dean to stand up for the American people, but looks like he's just one more panderer to MiamiCubans.

Considering that most Americans want the embargo and travel ban against Americans to end, why doesn't Dean pin B* to the wall on this issue?

SPOKANE, Wash. - As he surges to the top of the race for the 2004 Democratic presidential nomination and begins to think about a potential contest against President Bush, former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean says he is shifting his views on the trade embargo with Cuba.

Speaking to reporters during a four-day national campaign swing, Dean said he supports rolling back the embargo in order to encourage human-rights advancements -- but citing Fidel Castro's recent crackdowns on dissidents, says that in recent months he has become convinced that ``we can't do it right now.''

Dean called Cuba a ''political question,'' and said that recent developments on the island would prevent him from his goal of ``constructive engagement of Cuba.''
