what do think of this article sound off

I'm figuring on working off "Stored fat" as well.
What I would expect is irate armed citizens congregating at their state capitals, and dragging out the State legislatures first after the Police or National Guard are sicced on them, and whether or not those groups will resist or join the rebellion will in all cases be a coin toss. After that the Rebels will need to install an interim state government, and organize the forces at hand, first for defense, then to work toward supporting fellow Patriots in surrounding states.
For example, Maine, NH and Vermont would probably fall fairly quickly, once we consolidated our own position we could either move to assist Mass in the (Second ) siege of Boston (actually the Metro area ) or launch a strike into upstate NY to  (yet again ) sweep down the Hudson Valley to isolate NYC.
The elimination of those 2 strategic points would free up
Most of the East coast as far west as the Illinois state line, between Canada and Fl. there would only be the tri state Enclave of NJ Del. and ML (including DC).
What I just outlined is exactly the same strategic situation that faced Washington, during the first. revolution.
The three key points East of the Mississippi are Boston, NYC and the Chesapeake bay region. The Key areas West of the Mississippi would be the LA and San Francisco Metro plexes causing West Coast liberalism to collapse while moving to pick off a totally isolated Chicago.

Not telling any secrets here, just look at where the Socialists cluster, Obama only took cities in the election for starters, secondly, the circumstances that made Boston, NY and the Chesapeake key areas in Washington's day have only intensified since. Those 3 areas contain all the major shipping, rail, highway and air hubs north of Charlotte.
The 2 I picked on the West Coast are the same and contain about 1/2 of the west coasts population.

As to who will lead it, Who knows, hopefully the situation will produce the man. Washington's record was rather spotty before the Revolution but he rose to the occasion.
