I think its time for the Republicans to get it right and start fighting no holds barred. They just want to be above the fray and let the people get it done on e******n day. They just want to play ``tough but are scared they might get
some dirt thrown on them. Instead of having someone speaking let every member attack all the big mouth c*******t that is running their mouth.

Puerto Rico, the Marshall Islands, American Samoa and the US Virgin Islands can all become states! The Republican Party has not represented the will of the American people for years if they want to maintain their relevance they had better start to.

Our Founding Fathers didn't even know what was on the other side of the Appalachians.

The reference to the Founding Father's isn't really relevant didn't really care about gaining more states as it was a time of growth for the nation. Puerto Rico has v**ed against becoming a states on several occasions because they gain more by remaining a territory. I believe what will happen if we get to a one party system is that we will see political assassinations for a time until one strong leader wins and removes the others. Take your pick from history about how it will happen. Didn't King David send out a General to die so David could marry the General's wife?

That was a great amount of charts to read and think about. Might I suggest that you get the canvassers to canvass several large cities and then several small towns in rural America. I would like to see the responses as determined by population areas of the country. My personal opinion is that you stand more chance of being shot in a large city than you have of being eaten by a mountain lion or a bear on a hike in the country.

Our founding fathers only had 13 States to deal with. Here's a puzzle;

If the majority of Americans are not in favor of the GOP.........................then what right do they have being in power at all?

If the GOP can't sell themselves and their agenda, then THEY need to do some soul searching to figure out why............................not try to rig things in their favor.

Hey there toots, did you know there are actually 16 territories but American Samoa are classified as “organized territories,”and residents are American nationals, not citizens. U.S. territories. Sixteen? Yup there sure is... Look it up...

Sounds like you’ve probably heard of only the five that have permanent residents: American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
All but American Samoa are classified as “organized territories,” meaning “Congress” passed an Organic Act allowing them to establish a government and elect a governor and a legislature. Their residents are American citizens becauae “Congress” has not passed designations, however...
All use the U.S. dollar, none pay federal taxes and all have the protection of the U.S. court system. But neither citizens nor nationals from the territories can v**e in p**********l e******ns, based on the U.S. Constitution giving that responsibility to the “states.” And, like the District of Columbia, each territory elects a member to the U.S. House of Representatives who may participate in most aspects of Congress, except floor v**es.
