South Carolina has traditionally been one of the strongest defenders of state’s rights. I love that motto!

May you remember this also:

“Each State, in ratifying the Constitution, is considered as a sovereign body, independent of all others, and only to be bound by its own voluntary act. In this relation, then, the new Constitution will, if established, be a FEDERAL, and not a NATIONAL constitution.”
—James Madison, Federalist No. 39
