For what it’s worth, attempting to leave the Union when a national election doesn’t go the way you want doesn’t sound like a core democratic principle to many.

Thanks for responses, flames, etc. in advance.

(I am breaking my cardinal rule on FR: never debate the Civil War, or evolution.)

I don’t think we are debating the Civil War, the statement is that Lincoln killed the Constitution and uses the Gettysburg address as the an example. There is no debate, this is just stupidity masquerading as insight.

It’s not a core principle of democracy...it’s a core principle of freedom.
