"The only way to eradicate it is a revolution"

A revolution of want, and hunger, and pestilence, maybe. Otherwise, let's just separate from them. They are lost.

And how are we to separate from them in a practical manner -- draw a line through the country and tell everyone to move to "their" side of the border? Call for a constitutional convention to dissolve the Union?

America's ideological split doesn't conveniently align with some natural regional difference, such as existed at the time of the Civil War. Left and right live cheek by jowl, all across the country, and cannot be physically separated without monumental dislocations to the entire populace.

No - we're only going to fix this country the hard way, and that is by undoing over a half century of Socialist infection that runs throughout our culture. You want your country back bad enough, that's the daunting task you must accept.

I see such posts on here from time to time, and think to myself that people who say such things are just venting their frustrations. I myself, have sometimes commented that I'd just like to revoke the leftist's citizenship and kick them out of the country, but I know that's never going to happen, either.

The way out is through.

I disagree. The natural ideological splits are defined by location, race, and to some lesser extent, money (excluding the very wealthy). In other words, we are already largely separated; the marxist/fascist/statist/dependents largely live in densely populated cities, while the free men and women are in more rural areas. See Matthew Brackens' CW2 Cube.

Put the cities to seige and allow the communists to self destruct.

I'm not calling for such things; it is being forced upon us. I don't desire them ill, they want to be ill. I beleive we only have a few options, because our ideology will never again be the majority world view in this country:
Do nothing and eventually be absorbed by the hive.
Resist them politically and eventually be absorbed by the hive.
Have a civil war and the winner takes all.
Separate from them and restart a new and free republic.
