This is a theory that has been around for a long time.

The Scots-Irish and English were the first people to settle in the US, and, wouldn't it be interesting to add a state? The IRA wouldn't be able to rebel against our military, and they wouldn't be much of a threat, their country would be a better economical place if they belonged to the US. It could mean better trade and quite possibly lower taxes for us.

First of all Puerto Rico doesn't want to become a state.
Secondly, the Protestants in Northern Ireland want to remained a part of the UK and the Catholics want to join with Ireland so it will never happen my friend.

i'm for despite suits and contents Puerto Rico, besides the fact that i think of it particularly is extra useful they stay this style, they are in a position to maintain their id fairly of being only human beings (i desire that did no longer come out incorrect). What I advise is, Puerto Rico does have this is own subculture, customs, and language so this isn't any longer only like 'the different state'. Puerto Rico already desperate it desires to stay the way it particularly is and if it makes the persons happy, i'm pleased with it. And to the different answer above, no person is making the U.S. do all of that for the island. in fact, the U.S. has too by way of fact it particularly is U.S. territory meaning they use the land. you employ it, you pay for it finally.

I thought NYC was to be the 51st state and the Moon was the rightful 52nd state

Uhhh... yeah.. You're absolutely right about the IRA. They're total amateurs compared to the Iraq bombers.

probably not. Its possible it might become a colony, but I can't picture Ireland as a part of the U.S.

If so, what do we do with Southern Ireland, just lop it off?
