I am really impressed with your research. First Hamilton, then Justice Story, then Justice Sutherland. Very impressive. Not really germane as to whether the South waged war on the government of the United States, but impressive, nonetheless.
Still waiting for the rationale regarding the statement that Lincoln violated the 9th and 10th Amendments, the fact that none of the people who actually seceded saw fit to mention these alleged violations in their Articles of Secession, or any court cases where they challenged these alleged violation in court.
