Puerto Rico Statehood Poll

Um... no. Why exactly do you think the Mideast would want to trade Virginia for Puerto Rico? Go on - sell the idea to me.

All the tourism would help your economy.  Plus, it's an Island paradise!   Why (besides the map thing) wouldn't you want it?!  If I were Governor of the Mideast, I'd take that trade in a second, and I'm not just saying that because I want Virginia

Sounds good.  You should keep it.

That's very nice of you, but I want you to have it

But really, just for curiosity's sake (besides the map thing you already mentioned,) are there any other reasons why you wouldn't want Puerto Rico?

Thanks.  As I said before, I was just curious; didn't mean any offense by my question.  I thought there might be another point besides that one.

I would, however, like to point out that I polled the four active Virginian voters, and two said that they approve of being moved to the Southeast, one is undecided, and one said he likes it where it is.
