    And finally someone shows mercy for a country that has been a target of so many injustices. Kudos for Mr. Obama!

Evidently he feels that it was important for his legacy but his going to a baseball game and doing the wave right after so many people were maimed and killed was totally out of line.  If he wanted to do that photos should not have been permitted.  He has no sense of priorities and respect.

Actually I think it was long overdue! We should have a good relation with Cuba. It's sad that they have all those antique cars and can't even buy the parts for them. It's pretty awesome to see them though!

Waving with the Castro's  was a bit distasteful, and un-american to say the least....

I do not think it was a vacation, it was a diplomatic trip, and took advantage that he was making the trip to take the family and kill 2 birds with 1 stone.  But no matter what he does there is people still criticizes everything.  I believe that if the plane was going to make the trip anyways then let the family tag along, I believe that the $$ they spend in there is their own.  The government spends more $$ on other things that on a trip that the President makes, he deserves a vacation like anyone else who has a JOB

I think it is good... Mending strain relationships with countries that the United States should have not commited under Monroe Doctrine

Why do people have a problem with Obama taking vacations.  The man is Human, not a Robot.  The stress factor can't be good.  It seems the man can't breathe before some idiot has something negative to say about it.  Get over yourself.

I honestly am hearing about his trip to Cuba today. I assume that it is a diplomatic-based trip, in which case it would be interesting to determine what he and (Raul) Castro would be discussing.
