Statehood is a one way trip. It would also remove some of their automomy. They are so far from America and have a distinct culture. They may eventually want to split off. Best to leave it as a territory. Furthermore, the population is tiny. There are dozens of college footballs with better attendence. It doesn't make sense to give them two senators and a congressman. If they really wanted to be part of state, lump it in with Hawaii. I'd be fine giving them citizenship.
