    Either Richmond, VA or Montgomery, AL just for the irony.

        I'd put my money on Phily... but it isn't in the poll.

          I'd say Denver, just because it seems like out of the cities listed, Denver would be the most easily defensible. Any city with a harbor would be very tough to keep nuke-free indefinitely...

            Hey Mods, if any of you see this thread, could you add Philly to the poll choices please? Seems to be a bit of support for it.


            Thanks

                loinburger beat me to it. Though I'd be just as likely to support Cody Wyoming.

                  Chicago makes a better choice, I think. Central location, easier to defend than NYC, hasn't been prone to attack.

                  Also depends on who attacked us. If it was Russia, we aren't putting the capital in California

                      philly was the capital until washington d.c was built. i think adams was the first president to reside in washington. there's no reason why it couldn't go back to being philly, they already have historical monuments and stuff there for tourists. the liberty bell, and i think the building where they wrote the constitution is still standing

                        it is?

                        once you get into the US, which is riduclously easy, at least it used to and i bet it still is; there are no checkpoints or borders or anything. and since Star Wars is just a dubya wet dream, you can't defend against a nuke attack by missle, which probably wouldn't be the case. you could drive into any major city with a nuke in the back of a truck, and the government couldn't stop you, i don't even think they could try effectively

                          The temporary capitol would probably be something like NORAD.

                          Washington would be rebuilt.
