Cuba

Many years ago, my dad was born in Cuba.  I myself arrived on scene in Venezuela.

Thus, with a tattered passport in hand, registering my first born daughter as a US citizen at the Consulate in Melbourne, became a real adventure!

I think we should normalize relations with Cuba, and should have done so years ago.  This is not to deny the past, but it is to engender change for the future.

I believe the United States is Cuba’s best hope for freedom, and the more freedom people are exposed to, the more they will demand.

Neither Russia or China are paragons of liberty.  We trade and travel with them.

In the cause of justice, for the people of Cuba, and those who love them here, it’s time for a change.

Cultural exchanges should be set in motion, and I believe everyone will grow and benefit.

Vaya con Dios!
