Jeez. Have these people never heard of democracy? You know, it is where you all vote and the guy who gets the most votes is elected.
Hmm GW Bush was first elected even though Al Gore won the popular vote, but I digress.
My question to you, is what if the people in the state vote to leave the USA. What then? In the USA all voting, regardless of whether it's a local, state or federal office, is a matter of the state, not the federal government.
That's what happened, Obama won and now small percentage republicans want to secede,
No worries by the time they get enough signatures they'll have a republican back in office
then they will withdraw the petition .
I am very reluctant to get into any sort of political discussion since I am not yet a resident of the USA nor am I an American but it seems to me that unless the Republicans find a way to become more acceptable to black and latino voters then they will not get re-elected again.

The GOP is doing a wonderful job offending every voting block they need to win the WH.
These old white guys need to stop talking women's issues... what man thought it was a good idea to tell women how to handle pregnancy after rape? Why go there?
Why would you call everyone who voted for Obama a free loading, non taxpaying lazy bum?
I don't know how the GOP operates in NC but on a national level they are really screwing up the balance of power. They need to get it together.
You guys are funny. Still thinking there is any significant difference between the Democratic and Republican political parties.
Currently the main difference seems to be that one got elected and the other did not.
In fact there are differences between political parties.
The sameness comes mainly from the fact that the administration (the gnomes and worker bees pedaling away in the darkness of the departments) can only run the country (any country) one way.
All political parties do is spend money in different ways.
Trust me, it ain't just in the USA that this stuff happens.

Felt, I'm not sure if there's anything the GOP can do at a national level to get the voters back they once had.
The reason is the shifting demographics of our country (and other places around the world).
This has been going on for years and theres a HUGE chunk of voters the GOP will never get back.
Also, one must realize states like California, Illinois, New York, and other large electoral vote states will never go back Red.
All these factors mean doom at a national level for the GOP.
I honestly don't have a clear enough crystal ball to forsee what it will take for things to change....a good chunk of people in this country like Santa Claus..(aka Govco) to take care of them....
