Rename to Cuban lobby in the United States?
I suggest renaming the article to Cuban lobby in the United States for two reasons.
 * 1) There are already a some U.S.-specific lobby articles that follow that precedent:
 * Arab lobby in the United States
 * Israel lobby in the United States


 * 1) "Cuban lobby" in Google results in the most hits.  This is what I found doing the searches this evening:
 * "Cuban lobby" - 1,910 hits
 * "Cuba lobby" - 1,090 hits
 * "Cuban-American lobby" - 716 hits

My main motivation, thought, is consistency of naming. --Ben Houston 03:19, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Those are quite different. The "Israel lobby" is a lobby for Israel. The "Arab lobby" is a lobby for the Arab world. The Cuban-American lobby is decidedly not a lobby for Cuba; quite the opposite. Also, in my Google search right now, "Cuban lobby" gets 10,400 hits, "Cuba lobby" gets 12,100 hits, and "Cuban-American lobby" gets 144,000 hits. 75.76.213.106 (talk) 14:18, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

Alberto Gonzales
Is Alberto Gonzales Cuban? Also what about Emilio Garza? WooyiTalk, Editor review 04:30, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * No, they're Mexican Americans if I'm not mistaken. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zleitzen (talk • contribs) 05:50, 25 April 2007 (UTC).

Added "History and formation" section
This section traces Cuban migration and its effects on the lobby's formation. It also provides an overview of political influence and shifts in ideology.Nerickson32 (talk) 17:33, 15 March 2018 (UTC)
