The silence of Democrats and Republicans on Puerto Rico

In this episode, we want to discuss Democratic, Republican and Green Party political platforms regarding Puerto Rico. We read line by line their proposals about Puerto Rico and analyze how their statements could be perceived by the Puerto Rican people, particularly those well informed about the relationship and political dynamics between Puerto Rico and the US. Do they make sense? Do they reflect the reality of Puerto Ricans living in Puerto Rico and in the Diaspora? For this discussion, we have as our guest, Daniel Vazquez, a Puerto Rican attorney residing in New York as well as a co-founder, former member of the board of directors and currently collaborator of Boricuas Unidos en la Diaspora.
