I just don't know. I'm not necessarily flat out against it... but, I just don't know how "Americanized" Puerto Rico is.

I guess let them in if they want in. But we should also use it as an opportunity to enlarge the House of Representatives.

Lester is right about everyone who's legally an American not being culturally an American. Not all territories should become states, and the person who said that should be hung.

The question is, is PUERTO RICO American enough to become a state. I don't know.

ColinW, I'm not against Puerto Rican statehood. In fact, I'm more for it than against. I was just pointing out that not every territory should become a state.
