Of course the liberal North West is warmly invited to join California in separating!!!!

Nevada might chose to join. New Mexico too. And Colorado out there.

It will take another half generation of changed demographics for Arizona to join us, but it's coming with the growth of the urban areas.

I like to envision a split for California (that is not the San Andreas Fault :o) that also includes other large areas of the West.

Unfortunately that would leave poor New York all alone. But we could negotiate a free trade agreement, like the one that Trudeau signed today with the European Community: they are far apart geographically, but they share some basic attitudes in life.
