Hoy, todos los que amamos este bello Jardín de América, y del mundo- nos duelen las entrañas y el corazón se nos aprieta de rabia y de dolor. Este es un pueblo noble y pacífico, que ama profundamente a su isla.
No ones calling it a state. You’re calling the island a country it is not a country not any more it is an American territory. Are they taxed without representation? Like Dc? Is dc a country?
Most certainly not a state, and has its own government. It’s a separate country.
Okay, you’ve shown that the first part of your statement is correct (that NO ONE has contested). Explain how PR is a separate country, as you have asserted. Or you can just say you were wrong. It’s okay.
I don’t know if you’re trolling, but if not all of the 50 states also hold elections to form a government. That doesn’t preclude them from being a part of the US.
A territory of the US. You know, the thing it is. I don’t understand why you’re trying to redefine the word country to not admit you’re wrong. It doesn’t even buttress your point, it’s just a weird hill you are dying on for no reason.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to change my mailing address because apparently I live in the country of the USA, the country of Colorado, and the country of the city I live in. All of which have areas of land with a government.
Commonwealth is a form of government, not a definition of country. In fact, there are US commonwealth states, including Kentucky, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. But at least you tried.
Bruh I’m not gonna keep going with you. the link talks about Puerto Ricans voting for kamala. You’re talking about people that live on the the island voting. Not the same step up your critical thinking
Is Puerto Rico a state? Has the US made it 51?
No ones calling it a state. You’re calling the island a country it is not a country not any more it is an American territory. Are they taxed without representation? Like Dc? Is dc a country?
So, not a state, not a territory.
Does Puerto Rico have elections to form a government?
Okay, you’ve shown that the first part of your statement is correct (that NO ONE has contested). Explain how PR is a separate country, as you have asserted. Or you can just say you were wrong. It’s okay.
Answer the question first. Does Puerto Rico hold elections to form a government?
I don’t know if you’re trolling, but if not all of the 50 states also hold elections to form a government. That doesn’t preclude them from being a part of the US.
It’s not a state or territory
It is a state and a territory, but it is not a member of the union of states that is the US. It is a territory of the US.
Edit: I know, it’s confusing. Being confused doesn’t make you right though.
I’ve made no claim here. I’m happy to answer your question once you finish justifying your underlying claim.
The answer you refuse to express is YES
So, not a territory. Not a state.
What do you call an area of land with a government? If not Country, what?
A territory of the US. You know, the thing it is. I don’t understand why you’re trying to redefine the word country to not admit you’re wrong. It doesn’t even buttress your point, it’s just a weird hill you are dying on for no reason.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to change my mailing address because apparently I live in the country of the USA, the country of Colorado, and the country of the city I live in. All of which have areas of land with a government.
In order for it to be a territory, it has to be proclaimed so by Congres.
Puerto Rico is a commonwealth, not a country.
Every US state is an area of land with a government. Are they countries?
Commonwealth is a form of government, not a definition of country. In fact, there are US commonwealth states, including Kentucky, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. But at least you tried.

No, actually it’s a hometown newspaper aiming at Puerto Ricans living in the US.
