Normalizing Relations with Cuba

The White House made the decision to normalize relations with Cuba.  The embargo that kept the U.S. from having any relations with Cuba for over 50 years is finally dwindling as public polls show favor for it.  More than a decade ago a poll was taken and two-thirds of Americans favored moderate relations with Cuba.  Secretary of State John Kerry will be the first in his position to visit the country in over 60 years.  Soon, Talks with Cuban president, Raul Castro, will begin about opening a U.S. embassy.  Republican representatives like Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz are against Obama's move on Cuba.  Rubio said that the consequences of the this act will be the growth of power for the Castro family.
