the concept of two or more sovereign red and blue American nations

I understand the concept but when in history has such a divide happened peaceably? I don't even know how secession could even start in this day and age. The government is so invasive that they will nip it in the bud before it really can take hold.

I have thought about it a lot but can not envision a scenario of how it could happen.

Thoughts?

Yes, the “peaceably” part would need prayer.

I agree with you about the Feds never allowing it. Which is why I’m also thinking an Article V might be stopped by them or subverted. It’s a ways down the road. I’m just looking past Article V, maybe two generations away.

But because the Constitutional crisis is very near, we must think beyond Boehner.

Another wild card is how states will handle the unsustainable financial system.
