Who was Puerto Ricos president on Columbus' second trip?

First of all, Puerto Rico has never had, and will never have, a president. Second of all, when Columbus came to Puerto Rico on his second trip, Puerto Rico was only inhabited by the "taino" Indians. Third of all, Columbus discovered the Americas with some other explorers, how can you possibly think there was a president at that time if he was one of the few people to reach the Americas after the indias settled there?
