Is Obama Really Preparing for Civil War?

America's founding document (the Declaration of Independence) declares that our states are "free and independent." And so they are. We are not "one nation" with one all-powerful central government. We are a confederation of nation-states, united in a voluntary union, with each State reserving to itself the power and authority of self-determination, and ceding to the federal government limited, specifically delineated duties and limitations – limitations that have been totally ignored to the point that, for all intents and purposes, our once-great constitutional republic has been thoroughly expunged. Therefore, it is NOW time for the states to stand up to this meddlesome, every-growing tyranny that is known as Washington, D.C., and defend the rights and liberties of their citizens!

Is the populace ready to revolt? Government is prolonging the inevitable by using a Robin Hood strategy; i.e., fleecing the producers and doling the plunder to the looters. This strategy will not result in a good outcome for anyone.
