He's the only president to deal with states seceding from the Union. Is it just a coincidence that this movie is coming out right at the same time all those petitions go up about southern states wanting to secede from the Union? Initially it could have been some marketing company trying to be smart and get that internet people's attention...but then people actually started taking it seriously. Now we're dealing with it being a news item instead of a marketing ploy. You know... It's almost believable. What do you guys think?
