Right now , our nation already has a 51st state, The State Of Confusion..

But it would be nice to have.... let's see, the State of Afghanistan, The State Of Iraq, the State Of Iran, which should be renamed to The State Of IWalked.. and get rid of this Mahmood I'mANutJob (Ahmadinjad) guy the State of Saudi Arabia, and all of the surrounding emirates, which should be renamed The State Of TexacoMobilShell...

LOL .

I could see Puerto Rico becoming the 51st state.

Washington DC, Guam, Cuba may become future states as well. Let's not forget secessions, Downstate New York & Upstate New York would love to become separate states, there are many other states like this, California & Illinois come to mind first.

Why would you want additional states?? And please don't tell me you've visited every town, every city, every tract of land, and every municipality of every state in this glorious union, or have you? You can't be that bored.


I'm perfectly happy with the 50 we've got.


And please don't be a dang troll.

Heck, 50 is too many.

So far as we Texan's are concerned, there really shouldn't be but 2 states: Texas and every place else.

California should be split - Coastal California and Inland California. That way CA conservatives would have the rare luxury of having their vote count for once!
