So basically you're saying that states don't have to pay attention to the Constitution if they don't want to -- that it's really just a meaningless piece of paper.

And you say the leftists are bad....

The Federal Constitution does NOT prohibit Secession. If a State leaves, then the federal Constitution no longer applies.. They are bound while in Union, not out.

Furthermore, how do you explain Virginia, and others reserving that right ? They may have not spelled it out, but pretty darn near it.... I've gotta run...
