Simple.  First, it doesn't have to be in the US.  It should be in North
America.

Why?  The ICCA _charter_ clearly spells out that the event will alternate
between Europe and North America.  No exceptions.  Just alternation.

Most programs are not from _any_ one continent today.  But if we need to
enumerate, I'll bet the USA is at or near the front if you don't count only
commercial programs...
