The constitution is completely silent on the subject of secession and is therefor utterly vague on whether it is permissible or not. Given the political circumstances of the time, public sentiment in the North was largely in opposition to secession and Abraham Lincoln sided with that view. He was a strong enough leader that he was able to maintain the will to enforce the constitution, as he and those who thought like him understood it, until victory was won. Michael Montagne
