I sincerely doubt he could.

Re: Iraq as a 51st state

There's not one reason as to why it would be good (in my opinion)... It just means USA is really trying to take over land little by little, which isn't good.

Hopefully no one is offended, I have friends who I love in USA. I just don't like the idea of any modern country trying to take over other countries.

What the hell are you babbling about. Perhaps you should clarify what you mean. It should be precious.

Texas and California are military conquests. Hawaii was never actually conquered, but we threatened to blow them up with a giant battleship if they didn't let us move in.

Whatever. Can we make Guam a state first? Iraq can be 52nd.

I think Puerto Rico should be ahead of both of them.

Yar, they get all the american rights but don't pay taxes like us
Edit: Wait, lets just drop protection to them, last thing we need are cousins of the illegals from mexico.

Re: Iraq as a 51st state

Also you don't need a passport to go to Puerto Rico. So it's practically a state...almost

Yeah, Puerto Rico is kind of in limbo.

What the fuck? Puerto Rico has very little to do with Mexico, and every time the US goes to war, Puerto Rican soldiers get forced to go too. Technically speaking, and it's kind of an odd thing to say, Puerto Rico has protected the US more than the US has protected us, mostly because we haven't been invaded or started a war since the US did invaded us ;P

Wait... Puerto Rico and Mexico? What do those have to do with each other? What? I'm confused...

Also: The rich don't pay taxes either. Why should they get civil rights?

They shouldn't.

Screw the bourgeoisie.

I would, but I can't get into their gated communities.

Point 1: Spanish speakers thats inbetween the equator and the US
Point 2: Cause the rich already bought the government. See Republicans and Democrats.

Re: Iraq as a 51st state

Except Puerto Ricans only speak Spanish because the Spaniards killed off all the indians and colonized the island >_> There's no relation to Mexico at all. If anything, you might call us cousins of Cuba and Dominican Republic.
