Turn This Country Around!

I collect political rhetoric. I have an entire suitcase of it stored in the basement. You can find it anywhere, anytime. It comes in all flavors, Republican, Democrat, Independent, and unlicensed drivers.  They even have it in high school student council elections; "Fire the teachers! Get new bleachers." or "Vote for Jones and keep your cell phones!"

But the holy grail of my rhetoric collection is kept upstairs at my house in a decorated graham cracker box. It is the one that declares, "Let's turn this country around!" 



This makes so much sense. How else could we better fix out current problems? Just look at the map to see the advantages: Washington State could finally be in the posh northeast.They would enjoy fall color and people that talk funny, along with a great view of Europe just across the pond. It's high time California had a few hurricanes. The folks of the eastern states are quite tired of them. I personally am tired of everyone flocking to Florida in the winter. They will now flock to Alaska and boost that state's economy for awhile. Florida will still have great weather in their new spot. They just won't be as close to Cuba. Of course there is the danger of Florida breaking off from the mainland and sinking. As for Maine, they'll get former Washington's rain! 

It looks to me as though Utah and Indiana will be a fair flip when they exchange locations. That's a good thing. The Amish will thrive in the former Utah with its open spaces, and the Mormons would appreciate the former Indiana area for its significance in their early church midwest history. 

Texas, you will notice, will not relocate. It was concluded that because of its size, it's too heavy to move. Illegal immigration will continue, but will lead newcomers more to the new eastern states, where the weather is not as inviting.

Finally, North and South Dakota will also remain where they are. Folks have enough trouble finding them as it is. 

I'm just not sure how the Golden Gate Bridge will look in Delaware.
