Always keep the number of states a prime number

Created by A.C. on May 07, 2013

Because the USA is "one nation, indivisible", it is logical to do it according to math. So far we have 50 states plus DC, which makes the total number 51=3x17. If we make the total number a prime, e.g. a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself, the USA will truly become "one nation, indivisible". The nearest prime number is 53, which means we need another 2 states.
