But why is that most pro EU nuts seem to think that we are a nation of 50 cmaller nations? Soon to be Peurto Rico will be the 51st state and also the Virgin Islands/Costa Rico and the samoan (American Samoan that is) islands are all dependants of ours but none of our states have independance from the nation because of the federal republic we live in.

Are you trying to tell me that as a continent Europe is trying to compete with America as a federal republic to one day have 25 or whatever the number is official states of the country of Europe? It'll never happen! Half of your nations won't even agree to the EU constitution! Britain will vote no if and when a refferendum is called and Germany can't even vote because it violates their own national constitution.

Europe will never ever be unified as one the way America is and you pro European loons will have to settle for second best as usual.
