Peacefully grant the State of New York to withdraw from the United States of America and create its own NEW government.

New York is leaving and we're taking the
 other Blue States with us; CA, OR, WA, MN, WI, IA MI, IL, NV, CO, NM, OH, VA, FL, and the entire
 Northeast. We are The Enlightened States of America. 

Here’s the deal: 
the USA gets Texas. We get stem cell research and Hawaii.

 We get Google and Apple. You get WorldCom.

 We get 2/3's of the tax revenue (good luck!)

 We’ll control over 80% of the country's fresh water, fruit and vegetables; the high tech industry; most of the low sulfur coal; all living redwoods and condors; plus Harvard, Yale, Stanford and MIT.

 You’ll have 88% of obese Americans and their health care costs; 90% of all US
 mosquitoes; nearly 100% of the tornadoes; 99% of all Southern Baptists and Bob Jones University. Oh, 
and we're taking the good weed too. See Ya!
