I guess Obama must have gotten the states confused with Heinz 57. or with Baskin Robbins 57 flavors of Ice Cream.
All I can think of right now is that part in the original 1962 film version of
The Manchurian Candidate, where Mrs. Iselin gets an idea from a Heinz bottle and tells her husband to claim that 57 Communists have infiltrated the US government. Because, as Mrs. Iselin says, the point of their argument is to create a foregone conclusion amongst the public, so that the question stops being "Are there Communists in the government?" and starts being "
How many are there?"
Wait, when did Baskin Robbins add 26 new flavors to their menu?
