The only Constitutional way to make DC a state is to move the Capital somewhere else.

I would support this. I always said we should get our so-called elites out of that marble columned city.

Move the Capital to Omaha, make DC a state, and turn the whole city into a museum.

Move the Capital to Omaha, make DC a state, and turn the whole city into a museum.

I suggest Omaha for these reasons:

1. It's in the center of the country and protected from invasion or missile attacks.
2. Strategic Air Command is there.
3. Offutt Air Force Base can become the new Andrews.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. Don't allow the elites to name a ceremonial capital somewhere else while the true legislating remains in DC as a state.

I like the “move the capital, idea. But instead of making the District as state—it isn’t a state, it’s a single city—retrocede it back to MD. No extra Dem senators, no guaranteed 3 dem electoral votes, maybe one extra democrat rep.
