Juan really cannot safely play the asylum card because his new wife was required to leave her young son (from her first marriage) back in Cuba. Juan also has his parents and other close relatives who would be made to pay the price should Juan decide to stay in the USA. Also, how forgiving and understanding do you think Castro is going to be to Elian if Elian returns to Cuba and says something negative about Cuba or Castro? Publically it will be "the poor child was brainwashed while in the USA", privately there will be hell to pay. In fact, there is hell to pay on a good day!
