Henry,

The Revolutionary War worked because there was an ocean between us.

Or maybe you are talking about the so called Civil War. That one didn't work because there was no ocean between the North and South.

At this point in US History, it's not a region fighting for its independence like either of those two wars, it's an idea that some people have and some people don't. Any fighting would be a true civil war that would destroy the country. Much like Zaire or the former Yugoslavia. People just killing the neighbors they disagree with.

I can't get behind that, Henry.
