Methinks we a national discussion of that issue starting in 1861

We also talked about it in 1815. I think it was assumed then that states had a right to secede. It was ridiculed, but no one said they couldn't do it.

>>The Hartford Convention is an event in 1815 in the United States during the War of 1812 in which New England's opposition to the war reached the point where secession from the United States was discussed. The end of the war with a return to the status quo ante bellum disgraced the Federalist Party, which disbanded in most places.
