Second Vermont Republic Group

In my post Guns, Gold, and Secession from February of 2009, I wrote about how the election of Obama and liberal Democrats (such as my very own Congressman Gary Peters from Michigan's 9th, who has a wikipedia page that can be edited) had indeed changed our nation, spurring record sales of guns and gold and increased calls for secession. The secession movement has lost a little steam of late, but states continue to attempt to nullify the federal government's unconstitutional power grab for control of healthcare policy, and the tea party movement borders dangerously close to secession grounds sometimes.

In my earlier post, I wrote about the Second Vermont Republic (SVR) group, which is a secessionist group within the U.S. state of Vermont which seeks to return to the formerly independent status of the Vermont Republic (1777–91). This group calls for Vermont to secede from the Union. Although this group disbanded in 2005, in 2010 nine Vermonters announced they were planning to run for governor, lieutenant governor and seven seats in the state Senate on a Vermont secession platform. The candidates did not organize a formal political party organization but are running as individuals under the “Vermont Independence Day Party” label.

Has it really come to this for some people? Is this really what some people want to do? Look, the American political system is set, and has been set for some time. One nation, indivisible. Secession isn't going to happen. And while I'm at it, it is a two party system, a third party or independent is a stupid idea, vote Republican. You don't need to withdraw from society, or throw your vote away, to change the nation- Obama proved that you need to exercise your right to vote at every single possible opportunity- primary, federal, state, and local elections- and fight fight fight the liberal progressive leftist commies continually.
