"why do you make a distinction between Cuban Americans and Americans. Aren't Cuban Americans also Americans?"
It is the US government that makes the distinction.
Cuban-Americans are allowed to go to Cuba while non Cuban-Americans and non Cuban "exile" resident aliens are not allowed to go, by the US government.
Cuban-Americans & Cuban "exile" resident aliens have their FULL travel rights (to go to Cuba) while the rest of us do not have equal rights.
By that reckoning, non Cuban-Americans are second class citizens
