This whole question is irrelevant. In secession, where is the corpus delicti? The 9th Amendment guarantees our personal secession - because all rights that we ever had, even before Government came about, are still there. Government has no authority, by its own writings, to limit any of our rights, but we have to demand our rights in the right way, as a man/woman. The 10th Amendment bars the Federal Government to go outside of its own Constitution regarding the States and the people. The Supremacy Clause does nothing other than uphold the Constitution, which grants freedom to the people and the States in the 9th and 10 Amendments. Don't secede. Vacate. Because vacating is essentially written in through the 9th and 10th Amendments.
