The interesting thing is that there's an opportunity (for a legacy) right in
our back yard.
Cuba.
As "Only Nixon could go to China" and secured something, not quite sure
what, for Nixon, Bush could open up Cuba for American invasion (capitalism).
The country is ripe for the taking. What in incredible humanitarian gesture
it would appear to be, saving all those people (and in fact they could use
some real help, in terms of their living conditions). I guess it's
impossible to do as long as Florida remains a state.
