Anywho, I think having more options is going to change some outcomes...should be interesting to see!

Yeah, I'm close friends with a fellow physician from Puerto Rico. I've visited his family twice on the island. They don't think that it would ever pass, and as my friend would say, "That's stupid!" Then again, my perception also may be skewed by them. That being said, there are lots of cars with Puerto Rican flag stickers on the back which is supposedly the symbol of non-statehood.
BTW, if you've noticed the little family stickers on the backs of cars with stick figures representing each member of the family including the dog? Those started in Puerto Rico at least 8 years ago.
