What else can I help you with?
Does the constitution forbid secession?
It doesn't explicitly say that states can't secede. However it does say that the Constitution is designed to "form a more perfect union" than the Articles of Confederation. The Articles of Confederation explicitly stated that states were unable to secede. The other point is that, if the Constitution is a contract between the states, legally you would need the consent of all parties to break off a contract. So any state that wanted to secede would have to receive the permission of all the other states. Yet, please refer to our Declaration of Independence in which we seceded from British control.
Does the US constitution say what the government can and cant do?
Yes, it does.
Why did southernors think it was their right to secede?
They believed that the states entered the union of their own free will, and were able to leave the union of their own free will, like a divorce. Needless to say, unionists disagreed.
What state became the confederate states first?
I would say that the first Confederate state is South Carolina because it was the first state to leave the Union(secede).

What did Lincoln say in his inaugural address?
Abraham Lincoln's first inaugural address was about the Southern states that were trying to secede. He said that the Union was could not be separated and said he did not want to send soldiers to the South.
Who is fault was the civil war and why?
This is all a matter of opinion. The south fired the first shots at Fort Sumter. Some say the south was the blame by keeping slaves and attempting to secede the union when that was threatened, while others say the north was the blame by meddling and by passing laws that unfairly targeted the south.
Why does Delaware's license plate say The First State?
Delaware was the first to sign the declaration of independence or Constitution
Was Abraham Lincoln a liberal?
In the 1800's that term wasn't used. It is a modern concept. I would say he was a president that believed in the constitution and keeping the union together.
Confederate flag with NEVER apologize for being right what is the meaning behind?
It means you should not have to say sorry for something you didn't think was wrong, the south thought it to be a good idea and secede from the Union and after they lost they were asked to apologize for doing so, some did not.
