Ally, Your question is most challenging. It has occurred to me but I was not prepared each time to dwell on it for more than a few minutes. We may be forced into it. This is one that I come to slowly. I'm probably not a good person to ask. There are others who have the background and judgement to provide an intelligent answer. You would not contemplate it unless we were at this very dangerous divide. My preference/wish is that this convulsive period can bring us to a not very violent reckoning. That means that our enemies can be sufficiently weakened and the country has the leadership to carry the Union through. As serious and tough as life is here, I'd like the country to be able to evolve into a more accepting, fair and stable system. We are hanging low and breakable.
