As you would have us believe.
The union was not indissoluble.
No it is not. Chase mentioned the two methods of dividing the Union: rebellion or with the consent of the other states. The Southern states tried the former and lost. Has they tried the later they may well be separate today. Next time make the right choice.
The opinion of the Chase court here is no more binding than Dred Scott, Plessy vs Ferguson, etc etc
Well Dred Scott was nullified by the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments. Plessy v Ferguson was overturned by Brown v. Topeka Board of Education, et.al. Texas v. White remains binding today.
Yes I would have people believe the truth. You are right about that.No it is not. Chase mentioned the two methods of dividing the Union: rebellion or with the consent of the other states. The Southern states tried the former and lost. Has they tried the later they may well be separate today. Next time make the right choice.
Each state is sovereign. It does not require a permission slip from anybody else to leave.Well Dred Scott was nullified by the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments. Plessy v Ferguson was overturned by Brown v. Topeka Board of Education, et.al. Texas v. White remains binding today.
Dred Scott was later nullified. That does not mean it was correct at the time. Same goes for Plessy v Ferguson. Texas V White is wrong and no more binding than either of those were before they were overturned.
The Founders made the same choice. In fact, they declared that they didn't have to ask permission to exercise a right given to them by God. The only difference was that George III was not as willing to shed so much blood as was Lincoln.
George III could have won. He chose *NOT* to keep killing people. Lincoln made the opposite choice.
