Tourism up in Cuba

I've written before about my fascination with the island and how much I would like to travel there (kind of like time travel, from what I imagine).

But I can't. I'm a citizen of the United States of America, where you're pretty much free to come and go as you please, as long as your destination isn't this island (and a few other places on the globe).

If the reasons for the embargo are still valid, why are we still allowed to travel to China and Vietnam?
