And the states that did secede, originally, in order to come back into the Union again, they ended up giving up that right, which may have been there originally

LOL! Great post.

Despite the notion the War decided the issue of secession, the Constitution was never altered to reflect it. There are other clauses to restrict the beast.

Thus, the original intent of the voluntary compact remains intact.

So, would that mean that you’re supporting the Republic of Lakotah, in their secession from the United States?
