Have you been looking at the back of those quarters these days?
The quarters aren't just for the states anymore. Six have been issued in honour of Puerto Rico, Guam, and other "territories". (And one for D.C.)
I believe that this is a forerunner to the U.S. laying claim to these colonies, commonwealths, and territories. The U.S. needs land.
So, I guess Puerto Rico will finally get electoral votes! (Or maybe during the course of acquiring these new states, we will eliminate the elitist electoral votes, and rely totally on popular votes!)

You could be onto something there. I'm not sure, but I think they would tend to vote for Democrats.
ReplyDeleteSo seems like a Dem president would try to get the ball rolling.
