No part of the Constitution prohibits the secession of a state from the Union.

We already had a war over this. The south lost. Deal with it.

Another Constitutional revisionist. Read the document, m'friend.

Or is this your impersonation of Justices Douglas and Warren, wherein the Constitution has emanations and penumbras that do not appear in the text, but that you consider to be binding nonetheless?

Ah, yes. Might makes right, and damn the rule of law or the principles of freedom and self-determination.

Lincoln joined the ranks of King George, Chairman Mao, Stalin, and Krushchev when he decided to use force to FORCE a government on a people who wanted independence from it. Lincoln was evil.
