Ron Paul appeared on CNN American Morning to clarify his own position on secession and what the call for such a thing represents. He reiterates that secession is very American. In fact he points out (again) that we seceeded from Britain at our founding.

“Just because people wanna debate and defend the principle of secession doesn’t mean that they are calling for secession. I think it is that restraining element of secession that would keep the government from doing too much.”

The interview goes on to question Ron Paul on the bailouts, pointing to the recent “success” of banks turning profits. Watch the video below for his answer then read my own take on secession, Secession: Great Right Hope or Other White Meat?
