    @BigIzzyMI Quick correction, Puerto Ricans have fought side by side with American Soldiers since World War 1, not since the 1970′s, more like the 1930′s. Every single war in the 20th century in which the USA was involved, Puerto Rican’s were there as well giving their lives for the USA.

    What is Obama doing in Puerto Rico? Doesn’t he know that we are paying for the gas in air-force 1? Obama is wasting our tax dollars on a speech he could’ve gave in New York. He is still completely destroying the economy. Would you truly want to re-elect this man who wastes your money. It took George W. Bush eight years to plunge into nine trillion dollars of debt. It took Obama less than three to bring unemployment up, and plunge us into six trillion dollars of debt.

    Their are no jobs anywhere. It’s not an isolated case. So I guess Puerto Rico can wait in line with the rest of us.

    @steven1PR Doesn’t make too much sense, but okay…

  18. steven1PR says:

  19. cheif13435 says:

    he may be da 1st beast but i have his powers as well

  20. trooper40below says:

    @bostero1 But steven tells a truth there. There is some degree of tension because of that. Puerto Ricans are citizens of the US while Mexicans are not so Mexicans have this tensions towards Puerto Rico. But at the end of the day they’re all latino and its all good. But you can travel to Puerto Rico with no problems or worries as oppose to Canada or Mexico. But Canada and Mexico are awesome countries…just wanted to say that.

    As I always say, the issue of status is between Puerto Ricans and the United States, its NATIVE people (anglo,hawaiianos,eskimo, african american) and Congress. Latinos refrain from commenting disparagingly and stay out. this issue has for years long before there were other Latinos in united states. Puerto Ricans opened the way for other Latinos, were the first Latina to reach the nation through the relationship of Puerto Rico and the U.S.. Our relationship will endure forever. how much it hurts

  22. TheXavyelo says:

    STATEHOOD 51 NOW!! NOW!! NOW!! CONGRESS TO TAKE ACTION NOW… NO MORE COLONY… THE PEOPLE IN PUERTO RICO WILL NOT AGREE DUE TO THE COMMONWEALTH. THE Plebicito HAD TO BE ONLY statehood and independence. YOU DO NOT WANT THEM TO REALLY SOLVE OUR STATUS. WHITE HOUSE REPORT INCLUDES THE COMMONWEALTH, THE COLONIAL STATUS. IS STUPID.

  23. TheXavyelo says:

    OBAMA MEETS WITH DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE ALEJANDRO GARCIA PADILLA TO THE INTERIOR OF PUERTO RICO, WHO SUPPORTS A SOVEREIGN STATE COMMONWEALTH. WHAT OBAMA SUPPORTS AND INDIRECTLY. PADILLA GARCIA CAN HANDLE THE Plebicito TO IMPOSE THEIR SOVEREIGN COMMONWEALTH. PUERTO RICAN AND PEOPLE DO NOT WANT. ONLY WANT TO CHOOSE BETWEEN statehood or independence

  24. TheXavyelo says:

    THE WHITE HOUSE, TAKE A REAL ACTION, AND NON-COLONIAL. Puerto Ricans on the island are not stupid. And we are already sick of it all … OR DO WHAT THEY HAVE TO DO OR WE ARE GOING TO DO. ENOUGH OF COLONIALISM. YA BASTA DE QUE EL CONGRESO LE ESTE DANDO VUELTAS AL ASUNTO… EL PUEBLO JAMAS ESTARA 100% DE ACUERDO SI ESO ES LO QUE ESTAN ESPERANDO. Q ES LO QUE TANTO QUIEREN CORROBORAR… LA GENTE SE DIO CUENTA QUE EL ESTADO LIBRE ASOCIADO, ERA UN ESTATUS COLONIAL Q MANTENIA A P.R. EN ESTANCADO

  25. TheXavyelo says:

    POR LO QUE ESPERO EN ESTOS DOS PLEBICITO VOTEN POR LA ESTADIDAD, EL PROBLEMA ES QUE LA GENTE NO VA A VOTAR POR FORTUÑO EN EL 2012 VOTARAN POR GARCIA PADILLA PARA LA GOBERNACION. Y CORREMOS EL RIESGO DE QUE SE MANIPULE EL PLEBICITO PARA QUE LOS ESTADO LIBRISTAS GANEN CON EL ESTADO LIBRE ASOCIADO SOBERANO. PARA QUE EL PLEBICITO REALMENTE SEA TRANSPARENTE. NO CONFIAMOS EN LO QUE PUEDAN HACER ELLOS EN EL PODER EN EL ULTIMO PLEBICITO Q ES EL MAS IMPORTANTE Y EL Q TENDRA LAS 4 OPCIONES.
