Notes:: Would it come as any surprise that the first U.S. Black President may have sent members of the Congressional Black Caucus to kick start talks with Cuba's Fidel Castro? Castro's socialist revolution, contrary to official pronouncements, may not have cured the race issue in Cuba. "The fifty-year embargo just hasn't worked," Congressional Black Caucus Chairwoman Barbara Lee (D-Ca.) told reporters at a Capitol press conference after returning from a congressional delegation visit to Cuba. "The bottom line is that we believe it's time to open dialogue with Cuba."
