Guest: Quinn Mecham, PhD, Professor of Political Science at BYU  Other big news happening on the international stage today comes out of Cuba, where Barack Obama is the first US President to visit since 1928. In a televised speech seen in Cuba and abroad, President Obama said he had come to “bury the last remnant of the Cold War in the Americas.”  President Obama also said that change will depend upon the Cuban people.
