Move the Capital to Omaha, make DC a state, and turn the whole city into a museum.
I suggest Omaha for these reasons:
It's in the center of the country and protected from invasion or missile attacks.
Strategic Air Command is there.
Offutt Air Force Base can become the new Andrews.
It will tweak the elite's sense of superiority to be away from the marbled palace of DC. People would have to REALLY want to serve in government if they had to live in Omaha.
DC would make a superb national landmark city/museum, and can hold international conferences, national ceremonies, etc. Just move the offices of government away from there.
Don't allow the elites to name a ceremonial capital somewhere else while the true legislating remains in DC as a state.

Another advantage to Omaha would be that if we ever went to war with England again, we'd be able to stop their invasion before they got all the way to Omaha to burn the public buildings.
But it might make motel and hotel bills too expensive for people wanting to go to Omaha for the College World Series.
