Made strategic sense for Nixon to visit Red China when he did, since Moscow and Mao were not on best terms then.Nixon exploited that and while I regret it has lead to China becoming a world power when it should have been left to rot, Nixon was doing what made sense at time.
Much as I despise FDR, his wartime leadership was great and in the context of WW 2, had to cooperate to defeat Germany.
Cold War as it was is over. Cuba has been left to rot and while I don't oppose trying to establish relations in some ways while Castros are on way out.A Presidential visit is uncalled for but Obama is happy with, being with his fellow travelers.
