If things ever get really rough due to unconstitutional tyranny, the remedy is the right to revolution as outlined in the Declaration of Independence and upheld by Lincoln, not a non-existent Constitutional concept of secession not found in the Constitution.

The Declaration of Independence isn't the law of the land. In order to initiate a new revolution, a new declaration would have to be drafted listing the specific grievances against the Obama regime.

But what about you? Socialistic, unconstitutional tyranny is imminent.

Are you still a die-hard Unionist who will stay with the Union even if the price is freedom?

You're not comparing the trivial complaints of the secessionist sore losers of 1860-61 to a real Marxist tyranny? Just because I think the secessionists were foolish and illegal does not mean that I would condone a Stalinist tyranny here. The Union of Washington and Lincoln was never meant to be a engine for the dictatorship of the proletariat.
