I was thinking something more like this.
You had to include Minnesota, didn’t you?

Hey, I was thinking purely of organic borders such as the Mississippi; and in MN’s defense they did elect a pro-wrestler (former Navy Seal) as governor.
Besides, is there anything more independent that the North Woods spirit?
EDIT: Unfortunately, I live on the east side of the Miss in St. Paul but I could relocate to Minneapolis (about 4 blocks away) and offer my services as a Minuteman to defend against the Cheeseheads.

That’s true. I say we have a trial by fire–take all the hippies and drop them in the wilderness with a gun, some ammo, and a compass/map. If any of them are alive in 3 months, they can join us. [/quote]
No guns or ammo but rather a bow and arrow – kind of like a tribal right of passage.
One can only be brought into the fold of gun-powder arms once one masters the art of killing and eating ones own meat with bare hands. Just like we did in Boy Scouts.

Shit, I hear ya, brother. I started out musing about how if Montana seceded with the Dakotas they’d be the biggest nuclear power on the block, and now I’m kind of getting excited by the idea. I hate to confirm Thunder’s prior assessment of the rebel gun enthusiast, but I almost find myself hoping that the Supremes find in favor of collective rights, and Obillary wins the next election, and they pass a federal handgun registration act, or some such nonsense, so that the Western Confederation of America can be born.

We need to lose the Brownsville area of Texas, though. It makes us look like we have a dingleberry. Maybe make it a good faith donation to Mexico?

Here’s the deal - Texas doesn’t need the Dakotas. Oh sure, you have some coal, and the nukes would be nice - but we have the ports, tons of oil, and petro-refineries out the wazoo.
Not to mention our agricultural prowess.
We’ll probably annex OK for their nat gas, and agriculture. New Mexico is fucked - that will be our nuke practice range.
Unless we could insure a Confederate corridor from Texas straight up to the Dakotas and Montana, we would more than likely have 2 mini-confederacies. I have no desire to have CO, other than for the Biotest and the beer.
But we take Ks and NE, and we have just about all the major commodities covered, as well as leaving the Old US with all the pussies.
What about immigration? We are going to have whitey trying to get into our country at every turn looking for a better life.
Any Jay Hawkers, or Huskers wanna chime in? [/quote]
Excellent. Welcome aboard, BTM. I hope Alberta and British Columbia chime in soon, but the title of this tread isn’t exactly bound to attract many Canadians.
Which also might explain why not too many liberals have been responding to it, either.
