It was held as a natural inalienable right which is God given! Go read up on Jefferson! Do you know what inalienable means? Better look that one up too while you're at it!

Not at issue. Not with me, any way.

My issue is that unilateral state secession is outside -U.S.- law. It clearly was. Secondly, as the letter above from Jefferson to Lafayette shows, the framers, as Washington said, had an "immovable attachment" to the National Union.

In fact, President Lincoln preserved the government that the framers created.

The Union was only for strength, but individual rights were the basis for the whole document. LIMITED GOVERNMENT!
