I don't think you are very far from the actual truth, m0oni9... I think the post-election attitudes that are surfacing are clear indicators of another 1860 era. People are becoming less tolerant of thier brother - not out of difference of skin, but in the difference of opinions / mindsets.
I see Americans getting so upset and fed up with this very issue we've been debating for several pages - how the government isn't properly representing our views - that yes, I could easily see civil war in hopes to change our political makeup.
Take into consideration also the views of foreign peoples as well. Each year America pisses off even more of the world's countries - and even though I think it was good to declare war on terrorism globally and to invade the soverignity of Iraq (could've been handled alot more effectively, however) it's made many countries feel less secure about thier independance. What I think is that foreign countries will ally together, out of jealously or insecurity, to find ways to strip the United States of its uncontested global superpower (not taking China into consideration).
Hope y'all in Jesusland know how to properly charge, reload, and unjam an M16-A2/AR-15... nevermind, most of the hunters in the US live in states that voted for Bush - whereas the areas that voted for Kerry prefer handguns (which they have trouble hitting a 300lb. gas clerk at 4ft. away). No worries for the reds I suppose. :lol:
