Cuba fight offers Rubio new spotlight

The hearing will give him the opportunity to again highlight an issue he and his allies believe will keep him in the national spotlight as he moves towards a presidential run.

Republicans believe Obama’s foreign policy and national security — which they’re already working to hang around the neck of former secretary of State and presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, though she hasn’t yet announced a bid — will be a central focus of the 2016 presidential fight.

“There should therefore be no doubt that regimes around the world will be looking to emulate the Castro regime’s so far successful efforts to take advantage of Obama’s weaknesses and to undermine the U.S. role as the world’s leading economic and military power.”
