50 ways to leave your country Sound off on the post-election interest in seceding from the U.S. Ludicrous. Simply ludicrous These aren't state sponsored requests for secession, just a bunch of disgruntled Republicans harassing the White House The best thing to do is ignore these people Take a deep breath. Secession is not the answer I expect to see this after every election now, irrespective of the winner Let them go. They're a bunch of know-nothing rednecks who vote for Republicans who don't serve their interests Secession has already been tried, and the Civil War was not good for America The idea is intriguing, I'd like to know more I like the idea, but the White House will ignore these requests. Nothing will come of this The time is right for a serious state challenge to the federal government The White House might as well grant the requests. Obama has succeeded in his attempts to divide this great country It's a good idea, but it will take more than disgruntled petitions to break away from the U.S. I'm all for it. Secede now! If at first you don't secede, try, try again Moving to another country is preferable Other View Results Loading ...
