Where does everyone stand on this issue? With the current political climate, the US may as well be a one party system if either DC or Puerto Rico were to gain statehood. How exactly would the government go about accepting them as US states without royally fucking up the political balance?

I support the statehood of both, and disagree with your notion that the Government has to attempt to maintain the political balance in terms of that statehood.

A wholly Spanish-speaking region should not have statehood.

Why is that?

A wholly Spanish-speaking region should not have statehood.

Why is that?
The United States is an English-speaking nation. English is not an official language, but it is THE common tongue in this country. Any region given the level of power that comes with statehood should either be primarily English-speaking, or should make English fluency a component of public education (this may be the case in Puerto Rico, I don't know).

You act as though they don't already have a significant chunk of power as a territory - including a say in who becomes our President. Or through Congress bailing out their economy.

Granting them statehood would allow their voice to be heard, much more effectively, during the legislative process as well.
