Taking the history, Puerto Rico had the change to become a state from the 1950s to the 1970s. Alaska and Hawaii got it and Puerto Rico could have got it also. Now these days, it is clear that statehood in never to come to Puerto Rico. The current governor (Fortuño) which is a statehood party member, has made it even harder to come to an agreement with the US about this because of the mess he has done in his administration.
