Former Governor of Puerto Rico Luis Fortuño was on America with Jorge Ramos on the new Fusion cable channel, speaking about Puerto Rico and statehood. During the interview, which you can watch below, Ramos tried (for the nth time) to find issue with a nation wanting to form part of the US (ignoring not only the cultural and demographic realities of the country, but the premise of the network of the show he hosts), and on Puerto Ricans not residing in the territory not being able to vote on the future of the status issue.
On that last issue Fortuño had a stellar answer: “Should I be able to vote in Florida because there are a million Puerto Ricans?”
Ramos didn’t have a comeback.
