Mercury69 3 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Not saying that it's going to happen, but I'm supposing there will be some Southern states who might very well begin a new move to form their own country and government.Does anyone think this is already happening? Will a movement grow and be a strong voice for independance? What will it mean?These and many more questions should be discussed here. Link to post Share on other sites

FCP Bob 1,312 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 The more likely scenario is Alaska seceding. When they try and take The Yukon with them you know who Canada will be sending up there to protect us. Link to post Share on other sites

BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 The real question is, if the south seceded, would Texas Secede from the souch? Link to post Share on other sites
Mercury69 3 Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 The real question is, if the south seceded, would Texas Secede from the souch?I think Texas would become it's own country. A Republic, if you will...Just like in Jericho. Link to post Share on other sites
RealMagnetic 0 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Was secession a possibility originally built into the Constitution? I know that states' rights were very important at that time to the founders. Was the ability to secede from the union considered one of those states' right? Link to post Share on other sites
LongLiveYorke 38 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I think Texas would become it's own country. A Republic, if you will...Just like in Jericho.Texas could never and will never be its own country. 100% impossible. Link to post Share on other sites

Of course it was possible, all the south needed was a stronger industrial base and more irish immigrant cannon fodder. Link to post Share on other sites
