From Fox News, 26/1 (on the Florida GOP "debate"):

Of the four candidates, Romney, Gingrich and Rick Santorum all favor keeping the U.S. embargo on Cuba in place, as Santorum said, "until the Castros are dead."

Ron Paul takes the complete opposite position. As he said in Monday night's debate in Tampa, he thinks anyone who supports strangling the Cuban people with the embargo is living in the Dark Ages.

"I would do pretty much the opposite. I don't like the isolationism of not talking to people. I was drafted in 1962 at the height of the Cold War when the missiles were in Cuba. And the Cold War's over," said Paul.
