   As far as secession goes, the bottom line is that it isn't mentioned at all in the Constitution. Therefore, it can be maintained that it was legal based on the 9th and 10th Amendments. You can make whatever arguments or interpretations you wish to, but you can't debunk that one.

  When the Constitution was ratified by nine states, it became the ruling document of the land. At that point, anything contained in the AOC became irrelevant.
