No big deal but one of my notes was put up by CSM

US must end Cuba embargo

In regard to the April 10 editorial, "On Cuba, Obama must first think of Latin America – and democracy": It is the United States, not Cuba, that has isolated itself by its outdated policy. All of Latin America and the European Union have relations with Cuba.

It is not Cuba's behavior, but rather a profoundly corrupt system of political patronage here in the United States that keeps our embargo in place. That is obvious to the rest of the world, which observes our relations with China, Saudi Arabia, and Colombia with their horrific human rights records and undemocratic governments.

5. It's great seeing them print an intelligent comment. CSM needs far more exposure to the truth.

Congrats on your effort. Sure glad they saw its value.
