Make "Ope!" the Official Slogan of the Midwest!

I've lived in the Midwest my entire life, Indiana to be exact. Us Midwesterners use the phrase "ope!" everyday. It is really starting to gain a lot of popularity here, and has been engraved in our culture. The word ope is a perfect description of us, given our laid back, freindly personalities. As a result of this, I think it would be a great idea to make "ope!" the official slogan of the Midwest.
