78. LOL. Thank you for asking. Bernie sanders

actually sits in the commission of the Senate that oversees anything Puerto Rico. He is very knowledgeable and well versed on the problems facing Puerto Rico.

This is from a Democracy Now interview

Senator and pre-candidate Bernie Sanders defends the people of Puerto Rico. "It is time for creditors to sit down with the governments of Greece and Puerto Rico and work out a debt repayment plan that is fair to both sides. The people of Greece and the children of Puerto Rico deserve nothing less." Bernie Sanders said in a recent panel of economists in Washington.

"Today, when we talk about debt, we should appreciate that something similar is happening right now in Puerto Rico, where the government there is struggling with unsustainable debt, and a group of hedge fund billionaires are demanding austerity in Puerto Rico. They are demanding the firing of teachers, the closing of schools, so that they can reap huge profits off the suffering and misery of the children and the people of Puerto Rico. It is time for creditors to sit down with the governments of Greece and Puerto Rico and work out a debt repayment plan that is fair to both sides. The people of Greece and the children of Puerto Rico deserve nothing less."
