Group wants Obama to open ties with Cuba

The Brookings Institute, a nonprofit think thank based in Washington, has suggested lifting travel restrictions and other measures in the hopes of normalizing relations with Cuba. The US has not had diplomatic or trade relations with the island nation for 50 years.

I think its time to open those borders. If we have trade relations with China and Vietnam, there is no reason for this embargo with Cuba. Especially since every other one of our allies, particularly Canada and Britain, have trade relations and no travel restrictions for their citizens.
