They should have the right to vote and choose a president because every vote is important. I want to vote.

if they have to serve in the army, why shouldn't they get to vote for the president for real? that seems wrong.

I am glad to see primaries being held in Puerto Rico. I believe it will bring the attention of american politics regarding the issues Puerto Rico currently faces. I can only hope the issue of statues comes to an end soon, hopefully within the next 5 years. I favor statehood for Puerto Rico.

I think it's ridiculous to question it, since they have been a part of the US for over 40 years!

I think that anywhere in the world that the US says is a part of it, whether it is a state or a territory. They are saying that area in the world is a part of the USA and every part of the USA should be able to vote for the president because that is the person that will lead their country. Purto Riccio is a part of the USA so it should help vote for the president.

Yes they should be able to vote because it's still part of U.S.A
