It gets started when the American people start talking about it. There’s no point in forming “an organisation”. When people all over the country start talking about it. An idea gains momentum.

I’m not trying to be deprecatory, I’m interested in this.
These are questions that I’m not smart enough to answer.
But one thing I do know is that if someone decided to try this, a half-assed attempt would be far, far worse than no attempt at all.

Obviously you’d needto get candidates into office that would allow you to present your idea to the state, but how are you going to get them into office?
Maybe a statewide coalition of business owners?
Assuming the state voted your way, what then?
What would you do when the feds decided to burn down a city to make a point?

What little I know of our history leads me to believe that the revolution was not lead by a rag-tag band of spontaneous patriots, but was fairly well organized by a few wealthy, dedicated men.
