chosen.content: Puerto Ricans are considered Americans because they are U.S. citizens, having been granted this status by Congress in 1917. Puerto Ricans share the same currency, culture, language, and heritage with mainland Americans. Additionally, Puerto Ricans have been able to access certain federal programs, such as Social Security, that are not generally available to residents of other countries. However, since Puerto Rico is not an "organized territory" of the United States, it is unable to elect a voting member of Congress.

rejected.content: Puerto Ricans are considered Americans because they are US citizens by birth. Puerto Rico is a self-governing US territory and its residents are provided all the same rights and benefits afforded to citizens of any US state. The territory also shares a common language and culture with the mainland US. Additionally, Puerto Ricans are entitled to receive veteran's benefits and participate in elections as American citizens. As such, they have been conferred US citizenship and are thus considered Americans.
