Earlier this week I supplied Andrew Kaczynski the article that Kathleen Hartnett-White wrote for Texas Republic magazine about Texas being better off as an independent republic.
The article is online at this link:

You collect things and it sits on the shelf for years and years and you wonder if it will ever serve any purpose and 20 years later it does.
Do not confuse Texas Republic magazine with the Republic of Texas movement. Texas Republic was a publication of the Lynn Landrum Society. William Murchison did an interview for Southern Partisan magazine to introduce the magazine to its readers. It was a magazine for the right-wing in the Texas conservative establishment. In Texas the magazine wasn't fringe. Last issue was published in 1996.
The first issue was in dedicated to M.E. Bradford, a professor at the University of Dallas who spent his life trying to undermine civil rights in America. Bradford was the leading intellectual for the neo-Confederate movement and was a major figure in getting it started.
I sent Kaczynski some writes I did on the magazine also.
It should not be surprising that at the 2016 Texas State Republican Party convention that the vote against secession was only 16 to 14. It should not be surprising that Boys State in Texas voted for secession.
IMPORTANT UPDATE:
You can read the article that Kathleen Hartnett White wrote for Texas Republic at this link.
