Interesting perspective.

If President Hillary Clinton doesn't like your politics, would you be comfortable with her administration revoking your citizenship and ejecting you from this country?

Puerto Ricans born on the island of Puerto Rico are STATUTORY U.S. citizens.

Their citizenship was awarded to them by an act of the U.S. Congress (God only knows why) and there is a way it can be removed by a similar act, if Puerto Rico is given its independence.

You need to do a little 'due diligence' on this subject before you start lecturing, Poohbah.

Im not for revoking anyones citizenship but correct me if Im wrong...Puerto Ricans (living in Puerto Rico) arent US citzens are they? They aren't a state! They dont pay taxes to the US either do they? I do however remember hearing something to the effect that they can collect on welfare or unemployment...right? wrong?

Im not all too familiar with the issues associated with Puerto Rico other than what goes on with the Naval Base.

Cut em loose!
