we will try to get it right this time....
....actually I look toward the Declaration of Independence(no, you are right, it is not a current legal document) to determine the best way to protect the most important aspects of the Constitution and the Bill Of Rights.
no statement on secession is necessary in the constitution, if you have reached the point to reissue the Declaration of Independence.
MOLON LABE!!
“the Declaration of Independence(no, you are right, it is not a current legal document)”
Maybe, maybe not. If you go to the following link:
http://uscode.house.gov/uscode-cgi/fastweb.exe?getdoc+uscview+uscnst+2+3++%28organic%20law
then click on a blue arrow pointing to the right, you’ll find The Declaration Of Independence listed as part of the “Organic Laws of the United States”.
Keep clicking on those blue arrows and you’ll also find The Articles Of Confederation, The Ordinance of 1787 (The Northwest Ordinance), and The Constitution Of The United States Of America.
