Default Re: Bush \"Supports the Cuban People\" While Maintaining Economic Sancti

Lincoln pretty much nixed this; states can no longer nullify Federal law.

Specifically how did he do this, and how is it still kept in effect? And how do we change it back?

Amendment? Law? Court precedent?

Lincoln did not change anything. The constitution is pretty clear in saying that this is a federal issue.

No Republican will lift the embargo. The Cuban vote is too important, and they WOULD lose it if they lifted the embargo.
