Answer this please, why would the senate vote on a bill making secession illegal if it was already codified in the USC? I guess you don't like what is in this
post do you?

I never said that this was codified in the Constitution. In fact what I said is that it is never mentioned in the Constitution. What I asked is where did the founders ever say that there was this power by the states to secede in the first place? I can't find it. However, the writer of the constitution obviously thought this power did not exist. Please read the scholarly research done in post 78.
Tell me something. Did the people in the Southern states have a right to oppress people's liberties? Did the slaves in the Southern states have a God given natural right to rebel against their oppressors?
