The process of interviews is not working properly. The mistreatment of people is taking place out there.
We're not calling the people out as long as we see that Elian's case remains in the courts and the government is not moving to suddenly take Elian back to Cuba.
People would prefer to risk death rather than continue living there. People just get so fed up with the system they leave and risk their lives on the high seas.
We are looking at the best interests of the people in this case.
We need to be more tolerant of people who think differently. We all created the monster, and we have to recognize that.
Our expectation is to make the wet foot/dry foot policy more humane. We're not asking the government to commence an open-door policy that would encourage people leaving Cuba to risk their lives in the Straits of Florida.
It's a victory for justice and civil rights. It's a victory for people who have nothing at all except the dream of living in freedom.
The Cuban people are trapped between a cruel dictator in Cuba and nonsense policies ... on this side of the Straits of Florida.
