Here is how the document reads-
The US continues to suffer economic difficulties stemming from the federal government's neglect to reform domestic and foreign spending. The citizens of the US suffer from blatant abuses of their rights such as the NDAA, the TSA, etc. Given that the state of Texas maintains a balanced budget and is the 15th largest economy in the world, it is practically feasible for Texas to withdraw from the union, and to do so would protect it's citizens' standard of living and re-secure their rights and liberties in accordance with the original ideas and beliefs of our founding fathers which are no longer being reflected by the federal government.
All my exes live in Texas, that’s why I hang my hat in Tennessee.
“Petition the Whitehouse” Bah - Do it in your State House. Tell ‘em good bye.
Texas can do it.

The La petition, is a BHO production. You report yourself directly to his blackstappo when you sign.
Of course Texas will never be granted secession, but if they are pack my bags Ethel we are moving.
Where in the Constitution does it say a state has to ask permission?
IOW “Don’t Mess with Texas!”
Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana would make a good group. Just look at the natural resources involved.
to do so would protect it's citizens'
"it's" is a contraction for "it is." Your sentence as written makes no sense. The word you're looking for is "its" -- no apostrophe. And the construction of the sentences isn't much better.
It's a great sentiment, and one with which I heartily agree. But get a pro to write it for you before you present it and make a fool of yourself.
Supremacy clause.
Texas is little different culturally from California.
Gay and LA raza mayors and Austin is to the left of LA.
I like to dream too.
I dream that the US is still filled with self reliant, God fearing people.
One’d would have to ‘purify’ the college towns first.
