Destroying The United States Will Not Bring A Return To Order.

Our nation is beset by many challenges. Some of them are big enough that they threaten the nation’s very existence. From both the right and the left, there are calls for secession – literally to tear the United States apart. The idea is that the red states and the blue states have so little in common that they should just split apart. This so-called solution is simplistic. It can never work. At the same time, the left is trying to eliminate the Electoral College. That would place undue power in a few large cities and take many small states out of the process of electing the president altogether. Accomplishing either of these goals would be disastrous.
