I kinda feel Bermuda would have a bigger stance being I can see it turning into a playground of those who can afford it in the fifties if not earlier be relative close to the mainland. plus there population is going be more white then the others which plays into a bit in the dark ages of american civil rights.
as for the VI's population wise interestingly looks like adding the British VI would be not that big of a population gain.
I still feel its a shame that PR is not a state being they would be the 29th most populated state
Eh, maybe. If anything, it'd be Martha's Vineyard 2.0. In the end, its legal status would be the same, and as its position is important, it'd be the site of US military installations as well.
And no, it wouldn't, even if you reverse the flatlined population growth of the Virgin Islands for the last twenty years.
Puerto Rico has had multiple opportunities to vote for statehood; they have never chosen that as their option. The status quo and semi-autonomy they have now (with a reduced tax burden) suits the island better. And, as they ceased any assimilation policies decades ago, the territory is not nearly as ready for integration as it could have been.
It certainly doesn't help that such a small percentage of island inhabitants even think of themselves as Americans, either.
