64. just to play devil's advocate
Not saying I disagree with you, and I'm in no way for interfering with Cuba at all, but while Cuba has a better infant mortality rate than the US ... plenty of nations in Europe have better infant mortality rates than Cuba. http://www.geographyiq.com/ranking/ranking_Infant_Mortality_Rate_aall.htm
or http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/rankorder/2091rank.html

Personally, I think the way to deal with Cuba is to stop any sort of embargo or whatever with them. Let anybody travel there or do business there, if they so choose. If we can do that with Vietnam & China, why not Cuba? In 25 years, China has moved 300 million out of poverty due to their more open economy.
