I think it was Thomas Sowell, a few years ago, that suggested either Vermont or New Hampshire would be the best state for this to work.
If I remember correctly, he stated that it would only take as few as 10,000 new residents and their constitution is ideally established for this.
I bet it’s Vermont. They are serious about it, too. (There’s a website
http://vermontrepublic.org)
It would be great if they did (being as far left as it gets). It might help pave the way. (There again, every left-looking site I’ve seen an article, the dim minions are all for it. Actually, they’re their usual classy, charming selves ;-) , but whatever)
