AIB: Raul Should Run In Puerto Rico

AlmostInnocentBystander: I think Raul should be patient and if PR becomes the 51st state he could be the Congressman from there, but not from here. In some ways he’s a lot like Obama, i.e. his story does not resonate with Americans. At some level all he seems capable of doing is resenting America. If he played Texas Hold ‘Em his ‘tells’ would wipe him out in the first round. Like I’ve said, he only concedes that natural born citizens are “non-aliens”. This is not good for him in terms of ambition and it’s not good for us in terms of representation. Sis, stop howling. I haven’t set him apart - he has, by his own words.

Question: Has Raul Labrador’s up-from-the-bootstraps story resonated with you?
