When you get right down to it the last thing Castro wants is open free contact with the outside world. He is just fine in his role of a despot.

So I fail to see what a visit by some Govener is supposed to accompliish.

As usual, it is not so much about the leaders of such countries, but their ppl. And the more sympathy the ppl have for the US, the harder it is for their respective leadership to wage their propaganda affairs to stay in power. As with Iran, in such a way the government is destabilised.

Simple.
