White House press secretary Josh Earnest ruled out the possibility that Obama or Biden would travel to Havana on Tuesday to join other foreign leaders in bidding farewell to the communist revolutionary. Asked if Secretary of State John Kerry or another top administration official will attend, Earnest said: “Stay tuned.”
