I wish you would read and consider more carefully what I post. I do not "want the Union destroyed" and have never said anything to suggest that. What I do strongly believe is that it was/is/would be the grossest evil to maintain a federation by force. I don't believe that Washington or his contemporaries would have countenanced that. Madison is on record in strong opposition to the possible use of such an action.
Is it any less evil to resort to force in order to break that federation up?
