<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 1029446, member: 21705&quot;]That is very much like the Texas legend associated with joining the Union in 1845. The citizens of Texas voted to join by TREATY and presumed they had done so even up to the time I was in school. It turns out that the US Senate never passed the Treaty due to concerns there was no matching Free State to balance out interests.</p><p><br /></p><p>This makes you wonder why they felt a need to secede in 1861.
