A recent writer to the Washington Post would have us believe that I and other Members of Congress who have visited Cuba somehow came away with the belief that Cuba was a democracy and that all was well. That is certainly not the case. It has always seemed to me that many freedomloving Cubans. given the opportunity. would prefer to leave. The outpouring of refugees from that country gives ample proof that many Cubans. albeit a small minority. are "voting with their feet" when they have an opportunity to do so. No one knows with any degree of certainty what - prompted the Government of Cuba to open its doors and permit many of its disenchanted citizens to flee. One can f suspect that the reasons may be more economic than political.
