re: Forget Panama, Canada, Greenland, Puerto Rico, let’s make Israel the 51st state.

See, I’d like to go the opposite route. I say encourage California to peacefully secede and drop this thing down to 49 states. It allows us to maintain some sanity for awhile and reevaluate this country’s future internal structure and direction. That gets a frick ton of illegals and Commies out of the U.S. in one move.
