#2 Next civil war won't be between Red/Blue states. It will be blue urban areas vs everyone else. I suspect a lot of state boundaries will be altered in the end.

#4 After the 17th Amendment ended state selection of U.S. Senators (Federalist No. 62. George Mason argued that state legislative selection gave states the power of self-defense against the federal government.) the Electoral College is all that ensures every state has a political voice. If the communists ever succeed in disestablishing it, the entire nation will become a tax plantation to serve the 40 urban sumps that are flooded with the feral demokrat base.

#5 In the process of going from a territory to a state, the boundaries get set in stone. I can’t see the Supreme Court taking this up.

#6 If I remember my civics class correctly, Congress establishes a territory to become a state, so therefore the argument can be made that it'll take Congress to establish new state boundaries. Anyone?
