Ok, maybe I did have something to talk about

So I'm watching the "America" number from West Side Story on YouTube. And I suddenly am struck by something. The entire song is pointless. Puerto Rico IS part of the USA. Has been for quite some time. Its just a part that hasn't decided whether or not to become a state or not. I mean as far as I can recall it meets EVERY requirement for statehood except for formally deciding to become one...

So little dancing gang bangers, you've never been anywhere BUT America. Though the racial and cultural differences mentioned in the song still work...
