The secession talk is silly, but in terms of amending the Constitution you also need two thirds of Congress before an amendment is even sent to the states for ratification. You could have a constitutional convention with a vote by 33 of the states but that route has never been taken before.

I was thinking of a convention. We need to bypass Congress.
