Ok, please show us in the US Constitution the part that makes secession illegal or unconstitutional. Thanks in advance.

You do not know history. After the war in King George the III recognized each colony as a seperate independent state, long after 1776. So too did the Articles of Confederation. Were you home schooled by idiots?

Articles of Confederation: “ The Union shall be Perpetual.” THE Constitution:” No State shall enter into any Alliance,Treaty or Confederacy.”

Were the articles of Confederation still in force once the union was formed? If you were in court and tried to use the articles of confederation in your arguement, would a judge accept or discount your use of it when it was superceded by the Constitution and Bill of Rights?

“The tarrif was only a pretext, and disunion and a southern confederacy the object.The next pretext will be the slavey question.” Andrew Jackson. 1833.

Ok, your interpretation of that is ridiculous. Once a state secedes ( The USC is silent on the issue of secession ) it is an independent nation, no longer part of the USA, and can form a “confederation” with any other country it wants.

It was forbidden. If Andrew Jackson had been President in 1861, a LOT less blood would have been shed. Lincoln was a softy bumbler.

Where you are on solid ground, is Lincoln as the one who ended Slavery. He had to be dragged into it.

slavery was not the primary cause of the civil war, just one of many causes.

Um, no. Secession is not "forbidden". It still isn't.
