Houston - Honestly because the population is the biggest city proper. Houston is debated with Atlanta and Dallas by some so either or.

Chicago - Nuff Said


Philadelphia - I have been to both new York City and Philadelphia and I feel Philadelphia is the right place to call a capitol. As before it served as our country's temporary capital so that is what gave it the edge for me.
I can't believe your from Florida and wouldn't even add Miami to that sentence lol.

^ Nevermind I seen what you said earlier you don't consider Miami southern. Basically Miami is the capital of Latin America, and really, Miami does it's own thing. Like I said earlier though all of the southern cities do their own thing so it is a toss up.

ha ha don't get me wrong I love Miami but yeah Latin America is what it would best suit. Miami does it's own thing. Thats pretty much how I feel about every other city in the southeast.

That has absolutely nothing to do with it. Why do people from Philly act this way?

It is a great city, as great as Boston or Washington. But New York is the end all be all of northeastern cities.
