I think we're two Americas.  This article sums it up pretty well...  http://worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=78574

I'm going to contact my state reps about what is involved in starting a secession movement within the OK state governemnt next year.  I suspect that we'll need a petition.

Our Constitution has stood for a very long time - we are resilient and we will survive.  I do believe that this country is moving left too far.

I have been waiting till after the election to put my 2 cents worth in.  I voted McCain because 1 he is from AZ and I am from AZ.  He has his share of personal flaws, but so did George Washington the greatest presedent ,in my opinion, to live.  I am very concerned about Obama and his views on the military and the middle east situation.   We have faught too long and hard to just pull out over there.   

With that saind we must stay true to our most fundimental values.  Obama has been elected and is presedent.  We all must stand up and support and guide him.   We have the power to do this.   We are not automoatons that do what we are told. Oner 200 years of history has porven that.  We have a voice and with enough support, that voice can and will be heard.   

Mark S.  Just remember what happend the last time a few states decided to leave the uniion.

Isn't Maine or New Hampshire always trying, or maybe there is just one city up there trying to leave one state to join the other.

Maybe the new POTUS will make all the red states third world countries...

We'll see how much of a tyrant this guy becomes.  People will warm up to the idea of secession once others are being dragged out of their houses at night.  This guy does politics Chicago gangster style.  He believes in eliminating "enemies".  There is always a threat of civil war as a result of desperate measures like these.

I think TX votes on secession every so often.  I think it's part of their constitution.
