I still want someone to answer where Lincoln got his constitutional authority to use force to preserve the Union?
Where does the Constitution say the POTUS may do that?
I was so hoping Birdwatcher would answer this for me
Do you wish the United States had divided in 1861?
Does that matter constitutionally speaking? Are you alleging that for you, like the communists, and any other lawless regime in the history of the world, that the ends justify the means?
Quit avoiding the question.
Anyhow, you forgot George Washington and the rest of Founding Fathers....
Of course, I wish it had divided. I thought that was clear.
So, now, how does that matter constitutionally speaking?
As for George Washington and the others, your attempts are pretty childish at best. The right of revolution once the consent of the governed is withdrawn is the very basis of America. But then again, if you don't know that...
