I don't see that ever happen!. It must be a beautiful country with a lot of "History" behind it (Hemingway wrote his best novels over there) but Cuba is extremely poor right now!. Their Economy is totally failed, Fidel is for some inexplicable reason still alive, his brother is brainwashing people even more what has the U!.S!.A!. to gain from such a country at this point!? They should have done this a long time ago, when Kennedy was still alive!Www@QuestionHome@Com

If it was up to the Cuban people, I'd say it could be possible in the future!. As long as Cuba is controlled by Communism and a militaristic government it will never happen!.
They need to get a democratic government first!.
Cuba has lots of natural resources and could become an American/world tourist attraction under the right circumstances!.

Edit:
If Cuba was an American state or territory, the Cuban people wouldn't need to flee Cuba and go to Florida, and many would go back to Cuba!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Slim to None- - -
When American attention is not riveted to an election then it swings to the 'problem' of Hispanics / Latinos and the fact they are a large & growing segment of the Population!.
11 Million Cubans----
Do the Math!!!

Actually Americans have coveted Cuba since around 1800 and throughout the 1820s into the 1850s various Southerners announced schemes to snatch Cuba from Spain!. Southerners slobbered over all that land that could be cultivated by armies of Slave laborers!.
Then the stumbling block was two fold - - - America was looking Westward and even the Southerners had to admit there was plenty of land in Texas for the taking!. And with Texas in their hands there was always the possibility of attacking and annexing huge chunks of Mexico!.
The other stumbling block, THEN, was that the island was soundly Catholic and America did not warm up to Catholicism until the 1960 s!!

I myself am happy that Cuba has its own culture & identity and feel that America is big enough!.

Infinitesimally small; how about if we take care of the states we have now!?

I realize that the Cheney/Bush White House is more interested in starting more wars without end, but perhaps we should build up the Homeland before we think about adding more states!.

Cuba would be a total money pit anyway if we were ever to take it over!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Let us hope the Cubans can remain Cubans, and that one day the Americans will stop thinking that inside most other nationalities there are Americans just waiting to get out!.

Are there not already enough Cuban-Americans in Miami that the whole nation does not have to become like them!?

Oh, I almost forgot, one day when America goes Communist, the Cubans will welcome them with open arms!Www@QuestionHome@Com

As long as Cuba is associated with the word "communism," America will never think of any kind of annexation or attachment!. My parents' generation (born in the 1930s) hates and fears communism (though few know what it is) and would never allow America to be tainted "Red!."Www@QuestionHome@Com

doubtful, Cubans have been in a Communist stat most of there lives!. All of there needs have been taken care of by the state!. the concept of helping yourself is a ridiculous thing to them!. "Why should I provide for myself when the government does it for me!.!.!."!? Sound familiar!?Www@QuestionHome@Com
