The specific parts of the Constitution that prohibit the States from secession are Article II, which delegate the power of Commander-in-Chief of all States to the Executive of the United States and the Tenth Amendment which clearly reserves rights which are NOT delegated to the United States to the States thus ones that are delegated (such as Commander-in-Chief power) are prohibited from being a power of the States. The confederate states waged a rebellion to illegally usurp power that was delegated to the United States.
If you were to disagree with this interpretation then you would be at least be honest in your response but you instead simply ignore it thus in reality showing your “political immaturity at the preschool level.”
OK - in what way do you suggest that the President's authority as commander in chief over the republic's military forces, some how applies to civilians? Hmmm? Please be specific. And please provide a detailed explanation as to why the President's military authority some how prohibits State secession...
