It's politics (desire for control and power) and money (greed) that are keeping us from visiting that country like any other country. If a country doesn't want to be bothered with the US, it is perceived as a threat. Since Fidel is not allowing the US to exploit his country with its capitalism (i.e. American-owned casinos, McDonalds, Wal-Mart, etc.), all of these stupid sanctions and restrictions are put on it. The US (I think) has done nothing but try to intimidate and harrass Cuba, and I applaude that tiny country for sticking up for themselves... Like the story of David and Goliath.
Thanks for sharing Rob. Maybe one day I'll get to visit there.
