There is no huge anti-Castro lobbying network outside of the Cuban-American community in Florida and perhaps a few extreme anti-communists groups. And the Cuban-American community is becoming much more divided, with the older, first generation immigrants becoming much less influential.

The agriculture lobby, the oil lobby, the tourism lobby and many other business advocacy organizations have been pushing for ending the trade embargo against Cuba for years.

The only reason it hasnt ended.....Florida's 25 electoral votes.

Though we shouldn't be at all afraid to give the ruination of Cuba (the Communist Party) a push when the time is right. We can all imagine several candidates for the right time.
