[Experiment 6-2-6]

As soon as I posted this, it suddenly occured to me that maybe Federalization isn't such a good idea..

But the District of Columbia is controlled by CONGRESS, not the President..

There's a potential difference, as the President can appoint a Governor and THAT person can control Louisiana better than Congress overseeing a Marion Barry type Mayor.
