As a part the caribbean you peurto ricans make your selfs outsiders and want to have more involvement in caricom (caribbean community)If you thought about your neighbours a little more we could unite in our similarities rather than differences. We all like rice and beans it is a national caribbean dish, lobsters and hot peppers. I,m not hating as I am glad that you are bigging up your people and inheritence.

You are right, due to our colonial situation, we have, for the most part, ignored our reality, of being smack dab in the middle of the Caribbean. As you can see, the large support for anexation to the US, is ample proof of our incesant denial of bein Caribbeaners, Hispanic, and capable. Unfortunately it is only a minórity of us, that want to live our reality and progress on our own, without having someone looking over our shoulder, as if we were children. The rest, do not trust in our own people.
