If you are going to suggest that Alaska and Hawaii are not part
of the US,


Yes I am. Alaska has a lot of Canada between it and the USA.

you're suggesting something that nobody will agree with.


I couldn't care. BTW, local Hawaiians want independence. The US stole the
islands. It has now more westerners on it than locals.




Now, if the US can be geographically split, why can't France or
Denmark? Without actually looking at a globe, I'd imagine that
Greenland is closer to continental Denmark than Hawaii is to
the continental US.
