Poll: 25% Of Americans Want Their State To Secede From The United States – How About You?

While browsing the news this morning and seeing that voters in Scotland had rejected breaking away from the United Kingdom, I was shocked to then see a story reporting that an incredible 23.9% of Americans want their state to secede from the United States. The findings were published in a Reuters poll on Friday. As you can see from the chart below, it’s spread fairly evenly across the US. The poll claims to have a margin of error of plus or minus 1.2 percent.

My take on this is pretty simple:  “haters gonna hate”!  I think this is nothing more than right-wing nutbars who just can’t get over the fact that Barack Obama has twice been elected President of the United States. What do you think?
