There are three parts to how Texas came into the Union. First, yes Texas came in under treaty and we could have disolved it at any time. However, after the Civil War Texas came back into the Union just like every other State, the treaty was no longer in effect. Third, for Texas to leave we would have to find at least two other countries to support it. I think Russia would be the first to get back for the US support of some of the countries that have broken from the old USSR. <br> <br> Is it possible? Yes. Do I want it to happen? Yes, but with reservations. Do I want Rick Perry leading the state at the time we do it? Hell no! I would love to see a vote on the issue to see what the people of Texas would be willing to do.
