Much is being made of the historic nature of this visit, and with good reason.
Obama is the first sitting President to visit the island since "Silent Cal" Coolidge made his way down to Havana.
Of course the Miami ex-pats are losing their minds over this (and by extension the Florida Republicans, and the GOP at large) but is there anybody outside of descendants of former Batista supporters and/or stalwart Cold Warriors that doesn't think this is long overdue?
