Gov. Pedro Pierluisi: ‘Puerto Rico will be the first truly Hispanic state’

Of course, if they do so, hold a referendum and a majority is actually for independence, then so it shall be, imho.

If that isn't so, as it appears (as far as I can tell), they need to have all the rights citizens in a democracy have - especially when it comes to voting for their nation's leader and being represented in Congress. Which does not necessarily mean statehood, but practically probably is tied to it.

Anything else is unworthy of a democracy. Maybe not so much if Puerto Ricans decide themselves they'd rather keep the status quo. Not so much if mainland America decides that for them.

Oh my, that would be such a sweet purchase for Austria. Can we get dips? We'd happily trade you Corinthia for them too. If you don't know them: They are great. (I you know them, maybe we can find another deal.)

I suppose we could de-citizenize them, but that would turn our political foundation on human rights upside down. Other countries have done that to classes of citizens.   Sad

PS Re: the trade for Karinthia. No Hollo. Don't think I don't know what you are up to.  You guys are not getting an empire back together. And shame on you for willingness to trade away a state full of Social Democrats.
