The United States is a composite of many and thus cannot collectively say anything.

Thanks for your offerings. I suggest you think in terms of legitimate (constitutional) processes. Then you will see how we may act as a nation and how we man not act against our nation. Please see my last two posts.

Already have, and those of the founding era recognized secession as legitimate. See Tucker's Commentaries, Rawle's View on the Constitution, and book I of Tocqueville's Democracy in America. Tucker was in the founding generation and was a contributor to several of the major activities in the nation's founding. Tocqueville and Rawle were in the generation immediately after them. All three provided strong legal and philosophical arguments for secession. Also, seeing as your previous posts contain little more than redundant inanities, I find little value that may be derived from either reading over them again or responding to them a second time.
