Canada deserves Idaho as well. With Prince Edward Island AND Idaho under our control, we'd have the potato game on lockdown!

This is so far off it doesn't even make sense. Utah and CO are closed aligned politically. CO has alot of Texans living here. I could see a block of CA, OR, and WA since all three are pro social program.
I'm going to China to live in AmericaTown (like how when the chinese came here they had chinatowns so I will just reverse it)
LEAPup- Funny, I hated Texas when I first arrived. I was used to The East Coast and Chicago. But the more I got involved in Private Equity down here, the more I saw $$$$$ potential. The more I learned about the Natural Resources, the lack of "Socialist" and Democrates (except in Austin, but they have zero power) and the hard working Texan with his Ranch, guns, gold, the oil industry, the Biotech industry and Telecome/Boxmakers etc. ....I began to like it even more. No state Tax and your buying power is far more than the East and West Coast. However, if your W2, Texas wages are so good. Also, huge Mexican problem along the South Texas Region. But I'll take that over the LEFT COAST and BANKRUPT EAST COAST. My home city NYC can keep the NYSE....fuck, Hardley any one is putting money in the markets and the "Insiders" are selling the majority of their holdings in this RALLY. Tumble weeds will blow down Wallstreet in the next decade. IMHO, CHICAGO will be the Strongest "Market" for Traders, Hedgefunds, and Banks. The dynamics of this market will survive but the shift of power is to Chicago in the US and Shanghi in Asia.
Isn't this what America is becoming with Obama? If he wins second term you will be like the old soviet union.
