Hillary Clinton for President!!!!!!

We love her!

Not only do Puerto Ricans pay SS, Medicaid, and a list of assorted fed taxes but all federal laws: criminal, civil, trade, electoral laws apply. We have the FBI, FCC, SEC, US District Court, FDA, and all fed agencies having their say on the Island. P Ricans voters want to have a say too. Simple!

The fact is how you vote, based on a dance shows some people do not yet know to vote you must have a set of policies that you think are good enough to get your support. People in the Armed forces are only in it because they can not find gainful employment doing anything else, that is a fact.

Puerto Rico is a nation, a latin american nation who still has a colonial relationship with the US, but the Brittish are too stupid and too far away to recognize this objective fact.

Luis Rivera, San Sebastián, Puerto Rico

It saddens me that POOR people still thinks the RICH elitest will do anything for them, they have done nothing in 400 years what makes you think PUERTO is important to the American Administration when you can't vote in the real election, you need to vote for change, so your vote makes a difference.

Hillary is only in the race to throw a spanner in the works for the DEMOCRATIC PARTY knowing she can't win, and resent the fact some one of colour might win. When Bush was massacreing the people of IRAQ what did she do, support it. Now the people of Fallujah children are dieing from URANIUM.

Daphne Kenward, Cambridge, UK

Interesting ( and extremely scary ) that the dancing abilities of the presidential candidates would be a criterion used to select the best one.

Joy, Lisle, USA

As a proud Puerto Rican and a member of the United States armed forces, having lost family members to the Korean, Vietnam and Iraq wars. I take offense to be categorised as a second class citizen. But then again it goes to show that we still have a lot of ignorant people out there.

So, Julio, knowing how to dance is the top prerequisite for a US President?

steve, Preston, uk

I saw Hillary dancing Salsa and drinking local beer on Univision and she looked wonderful. Obama, on the other hand, did not know how to dance, and therefore he's not getting our votes. Nevertheless, I'm still voting for John McCain, because he's a senior citizen like me, and I vote for my own peeps

Julio Torres, Guaynabo, Puerto Rico

For the record, while residents of Puerto Rico do not pay federal income taxes, they do pay Social Security and Medicare payroll taxes like everyone else. And the 4 million Puerto Ricans living in the States obviously are required to pay federal income taxes.

Chris, West Hollywood, USA

First Class Citizenship has it's price! It's call Paying Federal Income Taxes. Money goes one direction... to Puerto Rico from the USA. I agree, if a citizen of PR wants First Class Citizenship, and will pay Federal Taxes, please let them vote. Until then, you get to watch.

Will Rogers, Smithville, USA

While P R gets to send delegates to the Dem. Convention, PR does not have any standing in the Electoral College, whick ultimately elects the President. Sen Obama has chosen to use his resources to campaign in states which will matter come November. Sen Clinton's campaign is finito.

Dan , London, UK

I disagree that some latinos think Obama does not respect them, that is a sad mistake. I think those saying this should stop, because it is quite obvious that Mr Obama will win, and we need more positive things now and that include all Latinos & all of the American people. All are important !.

Daphne Kenward, Cambridge, UK

How dare you say Puerto Rican's are“second-class” American citizens. I am as much as citizen of U.S.A. as anyone born in the
U.S.A. and if I were living in "The States" I would have the right to vote.The mere fact that you suggest it offends me.

Nilda, Sabana Seca, Puerto Rico

HRC has been too sucessful in one thing: dividing the Democratic party. She has engaged in a dirty, mud slinging campaign (ala Newt Gingrich) to tear down a fellow democrat who seems sincere. The good of America requires a unified front against the republicans this year. Shame on her!

C T Wallace, Davis, US

PR's status is not 'murky." It is an Estado Libre Asociado, modeled on the Irish Free State by Luis Munoz Marin. The status is legally well defined. A majority of the people of the island have voted repeatedly to keep this status, so it stays associated.

Marcos, Chicago, USA

"the controversy over her remarks suggesting that the assassination of Robert Kennedy in 1968 meant that unforeseen events could still transform the race." Mrs Clinton is equally as likely to be felled by an "unforeseen event" - it's not just Obama who's at risk, and neither did she suggest it was.

David Cunard, Los Angeles, United States

As a Latino, Male, Masters degree, and proud father of two georgeous kids, I support Clinton. She knows that America does not need a quiter. She is the smarter of all three candidates, and she has taken on the media, Clinton's haters and the Obamania that has taken this country like a tornado.

JHernandez, New York, United States

Let the Puerto Rican people participate. They've earned it. Many Puerto Ricans on the island have fought in all the wars in the 20th and 21st century, and their voices also deserve to be heard. Obama does not respect the Hispanic community. He does not deserve our vote!

Yolanda, Sayreville, USA

As a Latina feminist myself, I strongly support Senator Barack Obama for President. He leads on delegates, superdelegates, states, and the popular votes. Ms. Clinton ought to withdraw, so she can keep some respect from people. Right now she is showing just her greet for power. People have spoken!
