Do you think its possible the Red States especially the South could declare succession and start the 2nd civil war in this country?
States that could do that include. Texas/South/North Carolina/Tennessee/Flordia/Georgia/Alabama/Mississippi/Arkansas/Virginia/Oklahoma/Kansas/Nebraska/North/South Dakota/Utah/Idaho/Montana/Indiana/Kentucky/Ohio/Arizona are all red states that could potentially join along.
North Carolina, Virginia, Ohio, Florida and Indiana were not red states in 2008. They all went for Obama.

A million years is a long time, however.
If alternative, locally produced energy becomes viable, on a smaller scale but repeatable from local economy to local economy, then, yes, at that point a break-up becomes more possible.
If we continue down the path to dictatorship, it is possible.
