My Mood:

No, I think the 57 states part was meant to be a joke.

The full speech from that clip is "...over the last 15 months we've traveled to every corner of the United States. I've now been in fifty.... seven states (laughter in the background, questioning inflection as he looks at the crowd) I think, one left to go-- one left to go, Alaska and Hawaii I was not allowed to go to even though I really wanted to visit but my staff would not justify it."

If you take that literally, that means he believes there are a total of 60 states, and he was barred from visiting Alaska and Hawaii.

It was clearly a joke.
