Nightmare.
lol Because we SO need 2 more Dim Senators.
Go away buffoon. Just go away.
Meanwhile, the Virgin Islands are going, “What are we, chopped liver?”
Carson must have felt tight at home at this Progressive Rally. Between this, his support for TPP and gun control, it is like having Obama running all over again.
Though the Commonwealth government has its own tax laws, Puerto Ricans are also required to pay most U.S. federal taxes, with the major exception being that most residents do not have to pay the federal personal income tax. In 2009, Puerto Rico paid $3.742 billion into the US Treasury.
But I know, don't bother the GOPe attack bots around here with the inconvenient facts. They have their daily GOPe email attack lies to push.
Joining with Jeb! and The Rube, is never a good thing.
So, Carson is advocating two more Dem senators and another Dem state??
What 'kind' of dues are they, Ben? Puerto Ricans don't pay federal income taxes so it can't be 'those' are the 'dues' you're talking about.....what 'dues' are they Ben? Idiot.
Just another pandering, self-absorbed politician.
LOL...and, now....a(nother) bail out, compliments of We the Taxpayer.

just pull the plug and let it sink
Of course, Marco and ¡Cheb! would endorse this.
that’s what I always wonder about. Why this fixation on Puerto Rico being a state, but no such talk about the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, etc???

Conservativejoy: Boss, they are on to us, what do I do.
Karl Rove: You know the drill. You take the RED pill and we deny we ever heard of you.
You must favor statehood for the District of Columbia then too, if these are the criteria, that someone pays federal taxes. Do you?
Something is not right with Carson.
It doesn’t matter what the consequences are. All that matters is that Puerto Ricans can vote in the primary.
I’m still trying to get MNJohnnie to tell me why he supports TPP. Carson is on board with it.
Q - Why don’t Puerto Ricans have checking accounts?
A - Have you ever tried to sign a check using a can of spray paint?
