The Editors: "Puerto Rico's l=ng-running drama as the 'Greece of the Caribbean' may be entering its fina= act." But the island's latest ugly financial developments -- with some pr=dding from the U.S. government and some legislative help from Congress -- =might force Puerto Rico onto the long road back to fiscal sanity and econo=ic competitiveness." =ead more...

Albert R. Hunt: "Democrats ha=e turned decidedly protectionist in the decades since the passage of Nafta= a period that coincides with increasing globalization and steep losses of=U.S. manufacturing jobs. Even Hillary Clinton is breaking with her husband=s free trade record, hinting she may oppose the TPP, which would bind the =.S. and 11 other Pacific Rim nations." Read more...

POLITICS

Francis Wilkinson: "The conto=rs of racial politics are changing as the nation grows more diverse. Repub=icans have failed miserably to respond. The Democratic base, the foundatio= of the party's growing multiracial coalition, is defined partly by its sh=red aversion to, and exclusion from, conservative white solidarity.

William Pesek: "In retrospect= HSBC's decision in 1993 to abandon Hong Kong for London's Canary Wharf wa= one of modern history's worst business moves. It seemed perfectly wise at=the time. ... HSBC returning to its roots would be a clear win-win, for th= short term and long term. The bank may have erred in uprooting itself som= 20 years ago, but it's time to let bygones be bygones."

LATIN AMERICA

Mac Margolis: The always-surp=ising Pope Francis's fellow Argentinians "may find his latest strike to be=his brassiest yet: He has asked the Vatican to open its archives on the Ar=entine Dirty War, papal adviser Guillermo Karcher told Radio America this =eek. This is a big deal." Read more...
