In response to:
I think that it's highly doubtful that Texas will secede, or be allowed to secede, but if it were successful, conservatives in the other 49 states would be at a severe disadvantage in presidential elections, with the loss of Texas's electoral votes.
The idea of Texas seceding from the Union is a long time joke, but a secession petition on WhiteHouse.gov has received enough signatures to be seriously reviewed by the White House.
This isn't quite the equivalent of the Declaration of Independence, but in the digital age, you could say it's similar.
Obviously, you DON'T think...
And Conservatives in the other states will relocate TO Texas by the droves....
You know, like people are fleeing Calif. by the droves???
