Utah visit leaves Obama 1 state short of 50

http://news.yahoo.com/utah-visit-leaves-obama-1-state-short-50-023455881--politics.html

President Barack Obama made his first presidential visit to Utah on Thursday, leaving him one state short of touching down in all 50 while in office.

South Dakota is the only state he hasn't been to....

Obama began the year four states short of having visited all 50. The White House quickly scheduled trips to Idaho and South Carolina, two of the four, before the stop in Utah.

It's unclear how soon Obama will visit South Dakota. But with 21 months left on his term, he has plenty of time to get there.


Has any president been to all 50? (Remember, there have only been 50 since late in Eisenhower's second term.)
