Other candidates include Vesta, Pallas, Hygiea, Easterbunny, Orcus, Sedna, Santa, Quaoar, Charon, Varuna, Ixion, 2002TC302, 2002UX25, 2002TX300, and 2002AW197. Personally, I think a body should at least have a name before it's considered a "real" planet.

Grounds for removal would include: Earth isn't always spelled with a capital E; all other planets start with a capital letter all the time. Earth's twin, Venus, despite being older, is much hotter. Given a choice between the two, the pick is obvious. Only Earth pollutes the solar system. For every asteroid Jupiter cleans up, Earth spews out half a dozen satellites, interplanetary probes, and dehydrated dead people. Only Earth has telemarketers, Paramount's Great America, and LP World Events.
