You have a habit for writing ridiculous timelines.

Contrary to popular belief...Texas can not seceed from the Union, Perry might be dumb as nails but he isn't crazy. The only thing the Texas could do is divide it'self into 5 soverign states, which would probably give the Republican's a few more seats to stand up to the Democratic majority. If we indeed did try to seceed from the Union, since I attend University in Denton, it's like a two hour drive then im in Oklahoma lol.

Actually wouldn't that also help the Democrats since the big cities in Texas trend toward Democrats? Especially if one state has Houston and Corpus Christi, another state has Austin and San Antonio, one state has Dallas/Ft. Worth, and one state has El Paso and Laredo (at least I think it is). That would leave only the Panhandle and the really conservative part of West Texas as the only places of Republican dominance.

But it is your state, so correct me if I'm wrong.
