A new poll reveals that President Obama is more popular in Cuba than either Cuban President Raúl Castro or former Cuban President Fidel Castro.

The poll, which was conducted by Bendixen & Amandi and commissioned by Fusion and Univision, found that 80 percent of Cubans have a positive view of Obama, while only 17 percent have a negative view. That number far outshines the 48 percent of Cubans who have a negative opinion of Raúl Castro, and the 50 percent who don't think highly of his brother Fidel.

The poll also found that many Cuban citizens are very optimistic that Obama's effort to normalize relations with Cuba will lead to political and economic change in the Communist country.

In the meantime, Cubans expressed widespread dissatisfaction with the current status of the country, which has been under the Castro regime for the past five and a half decades.

In addition, the survey found that 79 percent of respondents said they were "not too satisfied" or "not all satisfied" with Cuba's economy. On the other hand, 72 percent said they were satisfied with their educational system, while 68 percent said they were satisfied with the island's healthcare system.

The poll is based on the results of a secret survey that questioned 1,200 Cuban citizens between March 6 and 16. According to The Washington Post, pollsters working for Bendixen & Amandi interviewed Cubans without government by using trained Cuban residents.

The Post also made note that 34 percent of respondents refused to answer a question about Cuban exiles returning to the island to reclaim lost property. Plus, another 20 percent refused to answer a question about whether Cuba should have more political parties.
