if we look at the history of the irish in cuba, most of the irish to went to cuba in the 18th and 19th centuries arrived from spain, some of them with the spanish royal armies; other irish influx arrived from the u.s. for the construction of railroads used to transport sugar cane to the sugar plantations. that was at the end of the 19th century. and then at the beginning of the 20th century, we're talking 1902, 1910, before odono that i mentioned before, this man who gave his name to -- he was very proud of this lighthouse. the cubans offer hospitality to general alexander alejandro o'reilly. he rose through the ranks of the spanish army. the spanish sent alexander o'reilly to cuba to form a militia. he was appointed governor of louisiana and head of the army later on. he arrived in august, 1769, and took formal possession of louisiana for spain. think of new orleans and cuba, in particular havana, governors there were also in cuba so there was all this traveling from one city to another because later when i got my ph.d. from tulaine university and i went to the irish channel. it's int

he's no longer the president in cuba.is brother raul has already announced that he intends to leave office after his five-year term. so there is going to be big change in both these countries, and the question is which way these countries go. do they go -- does venezuela go the cuban route toward a purer kind of ideology or does it move away to a more -- to a less socialist, more social democratic sort of model that might edge it back into the better graces of the united states? that's going to be very interesting to watch. >> eugene, thank you for your perspective. >> my pleasure. >> we'll have more as we continue. >>> now, president obama and the economy.

position toward cuba is, with the rest of latin america?bout every country in latin america thinks that the embargo is needless, counterproductive, and obsolete. that it really makes no sense to continue with something that began in 1960, '61, under president kennedy, at the height of the cold war. the world has changed. the u.s. has changed. cuba hasn't changed very much, but at the end of the day, that's not very important either. i think most countries would think that the ideal situation would be for president obama, unilaterally, to lift the embargo and encourage different forms of democratization in cuba, which are not happening yet, but they may begin to happen if the castro brothers no longer have the pretext of u.s. quote/unquote aggression or an embargo against them, as a pretext for the terrible economic situation that cuba le lives in. >> and is there sometimes a knee-jerk response by other latin america leaders, that if the united states is against somebody, they're going to be more inclined to at least listen to them. so, for
