And then there is the matter that the sovereign states do have the legal right to unilaterally secede....to "resume the powers of government" they had delegated to the federal government as the express provisos passed by several states at the time of ratification of the constitution plainly said.

Please point out the provision of the United States Constitution that enumerates this pretend "legal right".

They were on much firmer legal footing than the 13 colonies had been considering the colonies were not sovereign.

Hogwash.

You have it backwards. Point out the provision in the constitution that says states do not have that right.

As usual, you're completely ignorant.
