That's not how it works because the senate as composed with the states we have works as it is supposed to. You trying to get to a tyrannical majority vote? Apportion the vote and representation by population? How about eight senators from California and one each for Wyoming, North and South Dakota and Montana? You think we need some changes? Why now? Probably because the electoral college gets in the way as does Twitter with simple winner take all majority rule.Kellso said:Dade County in Miami is heavily Republican for an inner city county.JayM said:It's pressure to insure four democrat senators.Kellso said:I have a feeling that Puerto Rico will become the 51st state sometime in the next 30 years.JayM said:One of these days we are going to have to stop them.

There is no reason the Republicans couldn't represent Puerto Rico.....especially if the island is turned into a tropical gambling paradise.
DC would totally be in the tank for the Democrats, but the flip side is that very few people live in Wyoming, Idado or the Dakota's...yet the GOP has 8 senator from these states.
The GOP has 8 senators from these 4 states that represent about 4 million people.
That is less people that live in Dallas or Houston.

Residents of Puerto Rico are United States Citizens, but Puerto Rico is at this point just a territory.
The idea is to make PR an island version of Las Vegas and have it be a resort type of place.
The idea of Puerto Rico statehood has bipartisan support from both major political parties.

The other argument goes that Puerto Rico has a national guard that has deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan.oh no said:
the "idea" of DC and PR statehood is because control of the Senate has been razor thin bouncing on either side of 50-50 for quite a while and adding these two would give the marxist regime +4 and near permanent control of the highest level lawmaking body that ratifies all of the regime's nominees and judicial appointees.
Quote:
The military defense of Puerto Rico is the responsibility of the United States as part of the Treaty of Paris. Locally, Puerto Rico has its own National Guard, the Puerto Rico National Guard, and its own state defense force, the Puerto Rico State Guard, which, by local law, is under the authority of the Puerto Rico National Guard.
The Adjutant General, in turn, delegates the authority over the State Guard to another officer but retains the authority over the Puerto Rico National Guard as a whole. At the national level, the commander-in-chief is the President of the United States, currently Joe Biden.

Yes, you just proved the ignorance.

So you tell me, why wasn't DC made a state. Can you even pass a basic civics test?

Senators don't represent people. Hth
4 million people spread through these 4 state have 8 senators that represent them....while the 30 million people in Texas get 2, and the 40 million in California get 2.
Washington DC also deserves to be represented in the United States Senate.
I suspect the reason you are so passionate about this subject (that you have to resort to juvenile name calling) is that you are succinctly aware the reason DC has no representation in the US senate is that its population is mostly black.
I can't believe how far off the rails this thread went.RGLAG85 said:Can't believe you went there and it's allowed to stay up.Kellso said:Then.......You shouldn't have any issues with Washington DC or Puerto Rico gaining statehood.RGLAG85 said:Yes, you just proved the ignorance. These "useless" states feed you and keep you alive and our Founding Fathers were intelligent enough, obviously far more than you, to understand they needed protection and a voice. Your representatives represent you, the individual. Again, SENATORS REPRESENT THE STATE NOT THE PEOPLE, the population doesn't matter. How many representatives does California have compared to South Dakota?Kellso said:There is no ignorance. The way our constitution is set up is that it amplifies the voice of people that live in these mostly useless states where very few people live.RGLAG85 said:The ignorance of not understanding a Constitutional Republic and the difference between Senators and Representatives.Kellso said:Dade County in Miami is heavily Republican for an inner city county.JayM said:It's pressure to insure four democrat senators.Kellso said:I have a feeling that Puerto Rico will become the 51st state sometime in the next 30 years.JayM said:One of these days we are going to have to stop them. How about a large 51st state?General Jack D. Ripper said:

Hawaii was the last state admitted to the United States and that was in 1959.
The USA has only had 50 states for the past 65 years or so.
There is going to be a lot of pressure over the next 50 years to turn Washington DC and Puerto Rico into states #51 and 52.
There is no reason the Republicans couldn't represent Puerto Rico.....especially if the island is turned into a tropical gambling paradise.
DC would totally be in the tank for the Democrats, but the flip side is that very few people live in Wyoming, Idado or the Dakota's...yet the GOP has 8 senator from these states.
The GOP has 8 senators from these 4 states that represent about 4 million people.
That is less people that live in Dallas or Houston.
