Obama reignites political debate over Cuba.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The surprising move by President Barack Obama to restore U.S. ties with Cuba has reignited long-simmering political passions over the fate of the island nation.

It also reinforces yet another flashpoint difference between Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton and several Republicans considering bids for the White House.

Yet even in Florida, the nation's most essential swing state, those distinctions may not matter as much as they once did.

The state is home to an increasingly diverse electorate of Hispanic voters and younger Cuban-Americans, many of whom do not share the same fervor to depose Cuba's Castro brothers as their parents and grandparents.
