You are such a partisan hack. Every President, Democrat or Republican, has supported this policy. Clinton signed the Helms Burton treaty into law that tightened the screws on the embargo (punishing foreign companys that did business in Cuba by limiting their access to US markets).
The reason that this embargo exists is because the Cubans in Florida support the embargo and Florida is a swing state. It should have been ended long ago but for politics.

If communism or socialized medicine worked, our embargo would have been like a fly against a huge economic engine of social change. since communism and socialized medicine are failures, so is Cuba. what bugs Ty and the others is that they still hope for a socialist/communist america, and the ash heap of failed communist countries is bigger and bigger and cuba is the poster child.
how many peple think elian is better off this evening than he would have been if chewbacca hadn't sent her stormtroopers to grab him? did France/Germany authorize that military action?
