Did somebody say that Castro and co will give up being boss? That seems to be your idea, not Obama's. China's bosses don't give up being boss just because travel and trade were allowed after the 1970s [more or less] and are fairly freely available now. Obama's point is more that the last half century of restrictions are pointless. If you go to China and start parading your points of view in Tienanmen Square you'll soon find yourself in a cage too. And in many countries that's true. You should get out more if you don't know that. There's not much point bemoaning the rights and wrongs of it, it's just how things are. If you go to Saudi Arabia, don't take a Koran with rude words written in it. Sure, that's not freedom, but it's how things are there. Yes, the Koran says mean things about you, but you aren't allowed to say mean things in return. Mqurice
