Do any of the proponents of statehood think about why other cities
such as NYC should be their own state also with 2 Senators?  Why
should DC have such a large advantage over any other city in the
US?  The fact that they don't have representation today is a
separate issue which should be addressed, but I'm curious as to
why individual statehood is touted as the only solution.
