and Missouri will always be the gateway to the west. The gateway for the people of the east that established this great country to continue making this country great by avoiding the south.
In many ways, I liken St. Louis to Cincinnati "The gateway to freedom from the south."
Everyone that made this country great do their best to avoid and escape the south and move west or north.
True. People act like the Midwest is bad, poor, trashy, etc. A lot of wealthy people live in the Midwest and Northeast "Yankee" country. Some of the BEST universities are in the Midwest/Northeast, YANKEE LAND.

Missouri is indeed overall a Midwestern state. My original point though, is that while as a whole Missouri is classified as Midwestern, there is a decent portion which is Southern and not Midwestern. I myself identify as a Midwesterner, although I take exception to being called a "Yankee" due to my family's Missouri Confederate roots.
