Miami Herald: Cuba’s new president is the first non-Castro in 42 years. How much power will he have?

From the Herald: “Díaz-Canel is the first non-Castro to occupy the presidential office since 1976. Before that there was a string of other presidents but the Castros have controlled the country since the 1959 Cuban Revolution.”  Many are echoing what Florida Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart is saying that Raul Castro’s successor is “another Castro puppet.”
