My character, tho not flawless, is absolutely fine, I am not ill, and do not suffer from Miopia. I still put rum in Coke (cola) and I would love for the general PR population to prove me wrong. You, however, are the one who is prejudice for calling me prejudice. You must be a Skerry voter.

"the people are lazy, they brag about the money the USA sends them, they take no responsibility for their actions."

Well, ma'am, the prejudice red flag is raised by the above generalization of your authorship. I live in Puerto Rico, and have completed a 22-year military career, am a business executive, in addition to operating a small business on the side. So, I'm a Puerto Rican, who lives in Puerto Rico and lazy I am not. Most if not all the people around me are like that. Tourism is only the six largest industry on the island, but I know for a fact that it is run by very professional and capable individuals. So your observations are patently false and mean-spirited and based on a single event. Drop me a line and I'll refer you to a good tour operator the next time you venture down here. If your honeymoon was more than 20 years ago I can assure you that you'll be impressed by how far we've come along in that short period.

And since I live on the island there is no way I would have voted for Kerry, even if I wanted to, which I didn't.

So all I ask of you and people like you is to stop shooting from the hip, give us your fellow Americans in the territories some slack, and realize that this disenfranchisement and discrimination against millions of citizens of the United States of America must end. 107 years is too much.
