Secession

Half seriously, I suggested in November 2008 that "red" states should
do the same thing that southern states did in 1860 when the other guy
from Illinois was elected President .
More seriously, we need to at least debate the topic. A new Constitution
could correct some serious mistakes of the past and a lot of really bad
case law.
The nation is obviously divided along conservative/liberal lines. Look
at the red/blue states map.
Let's scrap Social Security, Medicare, Medicare Prescription Drug and
other unConstitutional programs. The SCOTUS told FDR that they
were unConstitutional, but he took the "I Won" approach and
threatened to pack the Court. Let's implement the Fair Tax - omitting
the 16th amendment and others (14th) with the new Constitution.
