Why? I would love for us to be divided into two separate countries and I have felt that way since Obama was first elected. It’s like a couple who have “irreconcilable differences” and need to just get a divorce. Conservatives and liberals have nothing in common and do not share the same goals. Why should we be forced to live together? Why can’t we just go our separate ways? Let the states that voted for Obama be one nation and those who voted for Romney be another nation. But we get the military.
Do you honestly think we will be safer and stronger as 2 different nations? We will not.
My ancestors tried to split away from the US. The result was a bloody war that killed thousands upon thousands.
You have to remember people on 09/12/01 saying, "we are all New Yorkers." The very Red State of MS raised money and brought them a brand new fire truck.
When a hurricane came ashore and destroyed property and killed people in MS, New Yorkers went down to help.
We can disagree. We can even argue. But, we can't split apart. The United States are worth too much to all of us to simply give up.
