    Considering California, Texas, Florida, and New York all have started their own petitions, what do you have left? If Texas goes the entire South and Midwest will go with it. You lose California and New York...lol, you gonna fight on with Delaware and Rhide Island?....lmao!

    This seems exceptionally superfluous to me but admittedly I'm not American so it's entirely possible I just don't "get it" on an emotional level, (though, we have Quebec so I guess there is a relatability factor). Not winning the election seems like a poor reason to start trying to seperate from the Union.

    Oh. So you're talking about cutting the country up according to the Electoral Map? Uh... no. That wouldn't even be practical. We simply draw a line of demarcation. Whoever wants to go south, goes. But the land, and the industry stays right where it is. So, all the bible-thumpers abandon their farms, and move south. okay. We'll just have the Progressives take them over. Guess what? i grew up on a farm. I know a thing or two about farming, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
    You don't get to vote for the party that supported, and legislated government forced vaginal probes, and then claim to oppose Obama because he represents "increased government control, and power".

    Number one: this is not going to happen. No one is going to secede from the Union.

    Number two: No one grows tobacco any more. LOL There's no money in it now. You guys are a kill!

    It is. But, you know what you do with a rebilious teen that threatens to "run away"? You let them. When they get cold enough, and hungry enough, they come home.

    We'll see. If y'all really are petulant, and ignorant enough to do this, we shall see.

    You guys are all missing one point. These states could secede and start their own nations. Look how large Texas is and look at it's annual income. It needs no one else to join it, to be a nation (again) all it's own.

    FUN??? That's not how I'd describe the death of our nation. I will mourn the day any state secedes, and not just for economic factors.
