Of course, we did fight a war that determined they couldn't. Most Southerners believe that was an illegal war--but what makes war legal? Usually, might makes right.
Look at the old Confederation papers, and what was written in the original constitution as to whether or not States could leave the union after agreeing to join the Union. |
