Yes, I am quite familiar with Puerto Rico, and its history. My father's side of the family is from Cuba, and when they left back in the days before Castro, they spread all over the Caribbean to places like Jamaica, Antigua, Dominca, Trinidad, and yes, Puerto Rico. My father eventually immigrated to the U.S. I grew up in Chicago, IL, which has a [b]huge/[b] Puerto Rican community. Of course, folks from Puerto Rico are U.S. citizens, and though they cannot vote for President, there is a representative in the U.S. Congress from the Island.
