  1. 1. If statehood advocates say PR should get statehood so they can get more aid from the federal government...

    • That makes me a lot less likely to be supportive. Sounds like they want to be leeches.
    • That makes me a lot more likely to be supportive. Fair is fair and colonialism is not fair.
  2. 2. Should Republicans get behind this as well?

    • Yes. Republicans should get behind this because it is the right thing to do.
    • No. Republicans should protect the English-speaking status of this nation. We all know the Democrats won't.
    • Yes. Republicans should get behind this because it is inevitable and we need people who actually love America (Democrats don't, well known fact) influencing the process.
  3. 3. If this bill passes, PR will have to vote on statehood. Let's say they pick independence instead and an independent PR allies with American adversaries like Cuba and North Korea/China (same thing, yeah?)...

    • I would be comfortable with that because that was their choice.
    • Then I would regret that we ever asked them at all.
    • That's fine. I'm sure Langley could use a near-shore location for some drone testing. AfPak is so far away.

And what of the fact that everyone alive today who was born in Puerto Rico is an American citizen?

An independent country where everyone is American?

How does that work?

We have the Philippines as an historical example to go by. Philippines got their independence, and all the suck that goes with that.

Big words, intended to obfuscate the fact that PR is plagued by third-world poverty and an impending financial crisis that makes Greece look like Singapore.

Surprised you could pull yourself away from Fox News to make a statement.
