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.

I didn't say that Democrats were blameless. But the government is controlled by the GOP right now, so they can take responsibility just now.
