::::Well, according to that article, Clinton's meeting was brief, unplanned and nonsubstantive and yet still led to criticism from anti-Castro groups and forced the White House to state officially that no change in policy was intended. Given the backlash following such an innocuous event, I, for one, am not at all surprised that no one is asking for Obama to meet with Cuban leaders.

:::::There's also the fact that while Clinton was President, Castro was the leader of Cuba. Now he isn't. If a US President meets any Castro it should be Raul. Leaders who visit the UK don't meet Margaret Thatcher or John Major; they meet David Cameron. --[[User:SamCoulter|SamCoulter]] 17:00, 1 April 2012 (EDT)
