History Of The United States Senate

Always playing with ideas and graphics.
Finished by bar diagram of the history of the United States Senate. You can see how long Republicans/Democrats have dominated the political landscape. You can also see that it took over 60 years of our history to get to this "stable" point. It also made me want to see a day when Puerto Rico becomes the 51st state, and the US Virgin Islands the 52nd, Guam the 53rd, American Samoa the 54th and The Northern Mariana Islands the 55th and the District of Columbia the 56th. Everyone we rule shares an equal franchise in the Constitutional process of our nation. They are all under the Federal Court System, they all get to vote to President, they all send their men and women to serve and die in the United States military, they participate in our currency and postal systems. It's time to say good bye to colonialism. Time they become full citizens and pay taxes.
