    “U.S. News and World Report” is out this morning with its ranking of the best states in the country. Iowa comes out top of this year’s list followed by Minnesota and Utah. The report ranked Mississippi 49th and Louisiana last:pic.twitter.com/CYMiEM7d8v

        Am I the only one seeing the obvious difference between the top 5 and the bottom 2?

        @USNews (& @CBSNews @CBSThisMorning) omits 217 year old DC from "Best States Rankings 2018" despite DC has more people than VT & WY, fully fed taxed, votes for US President under 3/4ths Persons US Amendment, #23A. #DCstatehood is the only way to restore equality. #DCstatehoodNews

        For @CBSNews @CBSThisMorning to do actual journalism on @USNews "Best States" ranking 2018, you need to brief @GayleKing to not just ask why #1 Iowa is so white, but to also ask why majority minority DC is completely omitted. #DComitted #DCstatehood #DCstatehoodNews @WUSA9

        DC citizens demand immediate 3rd BRAC of ongoing JimCrow tyranny over DC (~1846&1946) with US IV-3 #DCstatehood (38thTime) to complete (13+38=) 51st US state, to end tyranny ban on all actual legislators & legislature elections for DC citizens, Fed, State, & Local. #VotingRights

        When DC is omitted from state rankings eg @USNews Best States 2018, it utterly undermines DC citizens ability to demand positive change & measure year-to-year progress of change on such popular metrics. DC #ListOmitted utterly supports JimCrow politicians in delaying #DCstatehood

        Iowa...First-offense possession of even a single joint is punishable by up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine, one of the most severe first offense penalties in the country.

        Gayles question was not really answered. I can tell you as I get up in Iowa The people of color lived in a separate area of Cedar Rapids away from the whites, even though it is the Midwest “North” also there is a growing Hispanic group.

        Should have said “was born in Iowa and lived there until 8 years old.” Been back almost every year since. Have many relatives there.

        That seems high for Mississippi. (We kid the Mississippians and their regressive governance).

        I wish people would read this and quit moving to South Carolina. Stupid list. Look at where people are moving and you got your top 10 list.

        For Iowa to actually be #1 in @USNews Best States Rankings 2018, requires High Speed Rail from ORD-ChicagoUnion-PrincetonIL-DavenportIA-IowaCityIA / @uiowa (with bus links on to CedarRapidsIA & DesMoinesIA), to link Iowa to a global reach airport & major population center/market.

        Replying to @NPPendleton @CBSNews and

        High Speed Rail ORD-DavenportIA would allow DavenportIA to become a major US population center, adding walkable urban density, tallest towers, commuter rail, elevated rail mass transit (to avoid river flooding, & separated grade to avoid traffic), to really make Iowa competitive.

        The ORD-Chicago Premium Airport Express Rail (PAER) is being planned & built now. Chicago-PrincetonIL rail line is shared with many Amtrak trains, helping justify upgrade to High Speed Rail. The rail fork on to Davenport would have to be upgraded to passenger rail for new service
