My view: I want the Cuban people to have a real choice in their future -- therefore I oppose the 55-year U.S. government policy of economic blockade, terrorism, sabotage, assassination, and destabilization. The U.S. should immediately end its attack and pay reparations.

I hope we all support democracy in Cuba. That means we should stop supporting U.S. attempts to commit acts of war on Cuba.
