Cuban Americans can visit Cuba - but you can't

I love to travel and visit new places.  I think it's great to see the world and learn about different cultures.  To be honest with you, I'm mildly intrigued about Cuba.  It's about 94 miles from Key West to Cuba.  So you would think I could simply hop a ferry and go there tomorrow.  But there is a problem.  You see, I am an American and not a Cuban American.  I don't have the same rights as Cuban Americans have.  Cuban Americans can visit Europe, home of my ancestors, but I can't visit Cuba, home of their ancestors.  All this because I am not a Cuban American.  Please tell me since when was being a natural citizen a disadvantage?  C'mon Congress, let's pass a law giving all Americans the same rights as our Cuban American brothers and sisters.
