Completely uninformed about this topic, but I was a bit surprised by how few Puerto Ricans wanted complete independence. Maybe I shouldn't have been surprised, again I'm completely uninformed about Puerto Rican politics.


LOL... you're not alone in that. Independence is an ideal in some people's minds, but realistically, the more feasible options are statehood, or the status quo. Statehood has been slowly gathering momentum over the years, but I think there's a lot of misinformation that doesn't help to make the choice. Of course, once P.R. completely endorses statehood, it's up to the U.S. Congress to accept.
