The context suggests that he meant 47. He paused after the “fifty” to remember the exact number. Nevertheless, it was most definitely an error in his speech and a sign that he doesn’t do so well without a teleprompter.
Actual conversation from an eBay seller. I do not ship to New Mexico. I asked why not New Mexico? Seller:I don’t ship outside the US. ME: But it’s New Mexico! Seller: So! What difference does that make? Me: I give up.
Rare???How about when he referred to Hawaii as “here in Asia” or the Marine CORPSEman? Or how about when he said Fed-Ex and UPS are doing fine while the Post Office is struggling when trying to make the argument for gov’t ran healthcare? Or how about his insulting comment about his bowling score, comparing it to special olympics? His gaffes are anything but rare. Simply google Obama gaffes and you’ll get a loooong list.

And I thank God for the favor. The big-mouthed Pharisees are at it again.

The actual statement by Obama was that he had visited 57 states, his campaign team wouldn’t let him go to two and he had two more to visit.
