Re: Causes for independence...Magna Carta

But someone earlier brought up the issue of representation. Colonies didn't have it in Parliament, but the South did have members of congress in place to represent the interests of thier constituents. Sometimes the minority loses, but it seems kind of petulant to shuck the whole thing when your guy doesn't win the presidency in 1860. What was the deal about waiting for Lincoln to win before turning all hell loose. If he had lost, then what?
