加州脫美 加州有可能脫離美國嗎

SACRAMENTO Calif. --- After Donald Trump was elected as the 45th president of the United States many Californians voiced their disapproval by calling for California to secede from the U.S.

薩克拉門託卡利夫報道，在川普當選第45任美國總統後，許多加州人民發聲表示不同意，他們要求加州從美國脫離出去。

But can California actually secede from the United States?

但是圖樣的加州人民真的以爲可以從聯邦政府脫離嗎？

In 1961 McDonald County Mo. briefly became McDonald Territory after attempting to secede from the state of Missouri. More recently a movement in Texas called for a #Texit from the United States and several northern California cities have proposed a State of Jefferson separated from California.

1961年麥克唐納縣曾經短暫的從密蘇里州獨立，擁有自己的領土。 最近的脫離聯邦運動是德克薩斯州脫離美利堅運動，以及幾個加州北部城市提出來的脫離加州管理組建一個新的傑佛遜州運動。

In California a political group dubbed the Yes California Independence Campaign is using the Trump win as an opportunity to breathe life into their crusade to make California an independent country. The group hopes to put a referendum on a 2018 ballot that will allow Californians to make the choice to #Calexit once and for all.

在加州一個“Yes California”獨立運動政治組織將川普的獲勝視爲給他們爲推動加州成爲獨立國家的“脫離”運動帶來生氣的絕好機會。這個組織希望能在2018年推動一項“#Calexit”全民公投讓加州人對是否脫離美聯邦做一次徹底的選擇。

But states hopes of succession are nothing more than California Dreamin' according to David A. Carrillo Executive Director of the California Constitution Center at the University of California Berkeley Law.

但是加利佛尼亞伯克利分校法學院-加州憲法中心執行董事David A. Carrillo認爲承繼國家的希望（即加州獨立）只不過是一個“加州夢”而已

"There is no legal basis for a state to secede from the unx." Carrillo said. "The U.S. Constitution (A4s3) has a procedure for adding new states or subdividing existing states--both require Congress to consent. But there is no procedure at all in the U.S. constitution for a state to secede."

Carrillo說：“一個州從美國聯邦脫離並沒有法律基礎，美國憲法只規定了新的州如何加入聯邦以及如何將已有的州分割的程序——這兩個程序都需要經過國會通過。但是在整個美國憲法中都沒有對一個州如何退出聯邦的程序進行闡明。”

In Texas v. White in 1869 the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that states cannot secede.

在1869年德克薩斯州訴懷特案時，美國聯邦最高法院規定州政府不能脫離聯邦。

California's own Constitution (A3s1) states that "The State of California is an inseparable part of the United States of America and the United States Constitution is the supreme law of the land."

加利福尼亞州的州憲法（第三條第一款）指出：“加利福尼亞州是美利堅合衆國不可分割的一部分，美利堅合衆國憲法是國家的根本大法。”

Carrillo also discussed the probability and previous outcomes from other states.

Carrillo也談到了加州獨立的可能性和其他州之前謀求獨立的結果。

"It's extremely unlikely California could secede legally or otherwise." he said. "A group of states tried that once. It ended very badly for them."

他表示：“無論是否通過合法手段，加州獨立都是根本不可能的。有幾個州曾經嘗試過獨立，但都以失敗告終。”
