Sure, anyone can start another American Civil War and leave the Union. Ask Van Jones. Isn’t that what he wants? War?

My point is that there is no special condition in Texas’ entrance to the Union in 1845 that says Texas can leave the Union at anytime thereafter.

You guys are splitting hairs.

Yep, the only way to secede is via war. There is no right to secede, per the Supreme Court.
