Well, they tried that with a little thing called the Articles of Confederation. Didn't work out too well.
And actually, the constitution was only a modification of that. How can I say this with confidence, because when the rest of the nation had a vibrant two party system, in our state, you had a poll tax, and the real election was the Democratic runoff. I should also note that here, we don’t hold “Lincoln” dinners as Republican fundraisers.
When you consider what classically defines a nation as a nation, the United States contains several of them. And I still personally believe that nullification is a valid doctrine. The reason Republicans took the majority is because of state’s rights. The fact is, California should be governed under a different set of laws than my state is. We believe different things, and our laws should reflect that.
