Obama's Stance for Talks with Cuba Supported by Cuban Dissidents

Obama's Stance for Talks with Cuba Supported by Cuban Dissidents

Barack Obama said the U.S. has to talk to its enemies. He said he would lift restrictions on family travel and remittances to Cuba. Against this, Hillary Clinton is at one with John McCain, opposing any change.

A group known as Women in White, relatives of political prisoners in Cuba, has endorsed Obama's position. They hope a change in policy will help their relatives in Cuba.

Cuba has a new leader, though also a Castro. Surely the old bogeyman (in Americans' eyes), Fidel, should be relegated to history. Times 'a changing. A new U.S. president with a new policy and new hopes - will that not lead to a better world for all?
