Process of statehood is not well defined, but grants the power to the United States Congress as long as the legislatures of the states involved approve.
Virginia NEVER Approved for the creation of West Virginia, it was LINCOLN that made that Approval, UNLAWFULLY and Illegally, and Unconstitutionally....
If those New States FAIL, then Virginia has full rights to sue for the return of it's stolen Property, in the Supreme Court, and IF that happens, buh bye WV, and hopefully the amendments that happened in that same Congress....
Virginia, at the time, was claiming not to be a part of the United States.
I don't see how Virginia can claim that West Virginia was taken away, unconstitutionally, while, at the same time, having in open rebellion and being declared independent of the constitution.
More accurately, some Virginians were claiming to not be under the authority of the USA anymore... these shits were guilty of insurrection, rebellion and for many, treason. It's the same illogical argument made by Lost Causists when they claim that Lincoln violated their constitutional rights... how can they have rights under the US Constitution if they claim to not be part of the USA? The argument, like most all Lost Cause nonsense, collapses back on itself. Luckily, ever year it seems like we are doing better eradicating the cancer that is the Lost Cause and Calhounianism.
The South was being attacked because we were trading with England without using the Yankee trading firms. They tried to tax us out of business, and when that failed, they invaded us, burning courthouses, homes, and crops, and killing countless civilians, including women and children. They are guilty of war crimes, for which they never paid. The slavery issue was only brought up to get ordinary Yankee citizens to be in favor of war. Slavery was on its way out in the South, and would have been gone by the 1880s. You can tell the north's real attitude toward slavery by the fact that all the coon songs and racist works were created up north.
