SPECIAL REPORTS
Florida's Cuban-Americans Cooling on Bush
U.S. President
George W Bush has lost significant support in Florida's
Cuban-American community which, if the 2000 elections are a guide,
could play a decisive role in November's voting, according to a poll
released here Friday.
The survey of 812 Cuban-Americans in several key south Florida
counties shows Bush still claiming the backing of two-thirds of the
community. While unusually strong for any ethnic voting bloc, that
support is down from the nearly 82 percent of the Florida
Cuban-American vote he received in 2000.
THE TAKE:
DON'T ASK
“What is ecotourism?”
The interesting thing
about ecotourism is that very few people know how to answer that
question. The large part of the problem is that ecotourism means
different things to different people. To some, Pirates of the
Caribbean might suit well for an ecotourist adventure. To others,
eating tree bark while photographing squirrels is a much better
alternative.
“People, the fickle creatures that we are, went to all the trouble to
build cities only later to find ourselves wanting to leave them.”
