The American Declaration of Independence states, "When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another..." The war which followed that historic declaration in 1776 was not a revolution. It was a war of secession ÃÂ an attempt by a group of people not to overthrow their government (the British king) but to assert their rights to self-determination and independence from that government. Two centuries later, is it time for Americans to think about seceding again?
