What did we get in the western hemisphere a communist county less then
80 miles off the coast of Florida.
You do need to fact check your statements. Key West to Havana is just
over 90 miles, and Key West is not the coast of Florida -- that is even
further away.
Wow! He made a *ten* mile mis-statement!
No, because of his sloppy language, he was off by a factor of two. The closest point from the Florida coast to Cuba is Havana to the
Everglades, which is more than twice what he claimed.
For the USSR setting missiles in Cuba was the only way to
make the US to remove its nuclear missiles from Turkey. Do
the American textbooks tell about it? ;-)
Lee Harvey Oswald told us all about it in New Orleans,
Louisiana. Handed out pro-Cuba leaflets to passersby on Canal
Street, near the International Trade Center. Not sure where he
got the leaflets.
Later, he moved on to Dallas, Texas. We all know what he did
there.
It happened because some people in the USA (and also Kennedy, unfortunately) had strange illusions about a high price of a human life
in the US. He thought that a politician in the US could freely ride in
the open car along the streets and wave his hand to the people. No, he can't, and none of them has done such a foolish thing since Kennedy killing. And the matter is not in Cuba.
Finally the deal was reached.
Thanks to the Democrat President's brother, RFK.
Negotiation is the a very effective way to solve problems, especially between strong opponents. Although many obtuse American generals
insisted on war then. It is good that a head of state was not an idiot
as those generals. Yes, thanks to Kennedy.
Today, a federal judge who has been nominated to serve on the
US Supreme Court is being smeared with allegations of sexual
misconduct, as well as criminal acts. Whether the charges are
true or not, his reputation is ruined forever.
So how about Clarence Thomas ?
See how that works? The president nominates whoever he wants
to put on the US Supreme Court. The Democrats sweep it under the
rug. Only instead of one year, Democrats would get to do it for
two years. Maybe six years. Perhaps forever ...
Yes, I see exactly what is going on.
The President nominates who he wants and then the Democrats try to destroy this person by a baseless smear campaign full of uncertainly creating a cloud
of doubt.
The USA is just like the British ... the Tories and the Commons. And you thought you kicked them out somewhere 1776 ...

That's what you can expect in a 2-party system where 'winner takes all'
'compromise' is something unheard of.
If there were a 3rd party and no absolute majorities, sides need to talkto
each other and reach 'consensus'.
Dems will find that they will be less and less significant, soon they
will not be listened to at all, because the people in power will know
what they are all about long before they open their mouth to speak.
You know, I admire you for providing the undeniable proof you are without brain and are even proud at that.

I recently read somewhere that Nancy Pelosi was already picking out the curtains for the `Speakers' office.
I got a funny feeling about this coming election. I think its not going
to turn out the way some people are expecting.
In my opinion, however, the fact that WW3 has not still happened after WW2 is due to nuclear weapon.

He said "...less than 80.." you said "....90...."!
Do the math!
You nit-picked over about 10 miles! No wonder few people have good opinions about this zone!
JFK and Kruschev realized that nuclear weapons needed to be
controlled, and limited. Back then, only a small handful of
countries had them. Today, even small countries have them.
With many other countries able to make them.
We should expand the START treaty, or the START II treaty, to
include other countries besides the US and Russia. Buth US
President Trump and Russian President Putin can set an example
for the world, in this regard.
So why not call for a summit, with World Peace in mind?
After all, it is World Peace Day.
In general, nuclear weapon is a weapon of defense.
Only one country planed not once to use nuclear weapon first, to prevent others from getting nuclear weapon too, and you certainly know who.
In my opinion, however, the fact that WW3 has not still happened after WW2 is due to nuclear weapon.
