Independence.
Puerto Rico deserves to be free from US dominance and take its longed place among the nations of the world.
Seems like it would be very similar to Wash DC.
The Dems certainly would welcome 4 additional locked in Senators.
Hear,hear! Independence
This subject has been talked about for years.
And frequently people say we need to resolve the status of Puerto Rico, that we need to determine its ultimate status.
And the choices seem to be i independence or statehood.
What I never understand is what is wrong with the status quo? Why can’t they just stay a territory?
Puerto Rican Independence!
I heartily agree!!!!
And repeal the 23rd amendment to the Constitution to TAKE AWAY DC’s electoral votes!!!! That sinkhole of corruption deserves NOTHING!!!!
It’s a no brainer for Dems.
2 more locked in Senators, just like DC.
They’d be crazy not to push both those deals.
Puerto Rico Independence, now that would be interesting to see.
The last I checked,, which has been a while, the issue of PR’s future status is up to the PR people. They have had plebiscites over the years, and always so far voted to keep the status quo.
The two largest concentrations of Puerto Ricans are metro New York City and central Florida.
Completely agree.
Independence for Puerto Rico!
Can someone fund a go fund me account for any separatist who wishes to address Congress, from the gallery.
Independence and deport all PR felons inn the CONUS.
The Solutions:
1. Immediate independence for Puerto Rico.
2. No more talk of D.C. statehood take away its electoral votes. IT was never designed to be a state. Any D.C. resident not accepting that is free to move to a state.
It's time to end the days of building a a buffer zone around the USA by paying countries to 'like us'.
Cheaper and faster to pummel the crap out of anyone that messes with us and let them spend the next 50 years rebuilding from the rubble.
The nation building peacekeeper guardians of democracy policy has not worked in 70 years. PR adds no value to the USA - cut it loose.
I asked the same question when I lived on Guam. It appeared to me that Guam had a really good deal.
Really...
You two are grade-A aholes.
