[QUOTE="Tallguy88, post: 69424638, member: 237746"] Sixteen years isn't an extremely long time ago. I remember when this went down. I'm not much older than Elian. Maybe he is glad to be back in Cuba. But it's hard to know for sure, it's not like they have freedom of speech over there. Plus, the kid is a great propaganda tool for Castro. His mother died trying to get them both out of that brutal dictatorship. Ultimately, her sacrifice was in vain thanks to the convoluted asylum laws. Probably cost Al Gore the election, too. Never underestimate the political influence of Florida's Cuban population. Why do you think we've kept the embargo for so long? Because politicians practically have to bow down to the Cuban Immigrant community in order to win Florida, a crucial swing state in presidential elections. [/QUOTE]
