VITag-Headers-09

We passed on a copy of our Most Likely To Secede book to Democratic Party stalwart, 2004 presidential candidate, and DP super-delegate Howard Dean one year ago, when he visited Burlington’s University of Vermont to spend a day with the university community.

2VR-Dean

Good to see he’s been reading us, as he entertains the idea of nonviolent secession and a 2nd Vermont Republic in this ATLANTIC MONTHLY article.

From the last paragraph:

So what if the unthinkable happens and Trump becomes the victor this fall? “Who the hell knows? Maybe Vermont should just secede. Hell, we’re more Canadian than most of the other states anyway.”

Somebody get Dr. Dean a 2VR lapel pin. Hurry.

Buy your copy of Secede here, and long live the 2nd Vermont Republic!
