According to King George III, they never had it in the first place.

The constitutionally elected government of the United States was not a monarchy in either 1860 or 1861. Try again.

I am not saying that.

Madison's opinion was as worthless in 1861 as King George's was in 1776. And our founding fathers spoke often of the necessity of throwing of oppressive government, as they did. If the union was indivisible, why did they not put it in writing? answer For if they had no state would have joined. evidence The states that included the right to leave the union in their ratifications.
