Missippippi

History
Missippippi has a very unfortunate history. It is often referred to in snobby political circles as "the State of Confusion". Reportedly, President George W. Bush has spent extensive time vacationing there.

Achieving Statehood
Because of the embarrassment of John C. Calhoun's little spelling mishap, Missippippi is generally not recognized as one of America's fifty states and it is not included in any elementary school songs about "Fifty Nifty United States".
