so what we wanted to talk about with bob graham, former senator bob graham who was going to be on theit used to be, as we were saying, it was seen as -- the cuban american vote seems very monolithic. if you wanted the cuban vote, if you wanted to win the state of florida, you had to be as anti em bargabargo as possible. >> you could go to the freedom tower, give a speech, and you had them in your pocket. but now you see this generational divide. and also place divide, right? in florida versus new jersey, the other mecca of which you had original reporting from yesterday, right? so it's fascinating to watch. the one thing that i would heed, i think, for both parties that are trying to use this for political gain or not, this is such a sensitive issue. this is kind of like saying all of america thinks that all immigrants should be deported. no, no, no. undocumented immigrants, for them it's a super, super personal issue. cuban americans, because of their trajectory and because of how severe and harsh and horrible this regime has been to their parents and grandparents -- we're not talkin
