I'm so fed up with this pope after reading that he said child rape was normal back in the '70's. I was born and raised Catholic but consider myself agnostic today.

But no, I don't believe the Pope can bring about any change in Cuba.

Cuba won't change until Cuba wants to change. I don't see the pope having anything to do with it.

No

As much as I would like to be able to say yes I just don't see any real improvement being made until ALL of the Castro family are out of the government.

What's wrong with Cuba? Americans always seem to follow their media in believing that anything that isn't done in America is stupid or evil and needs to be changed...

Several centuries of popes, politicians, pirates, and gangsters, have already "changed" Cuba.

Not until Castro and all his cronies are in the grave. They know they will end up like Qadaffi otherwise.
