The 10th. Amendment says:
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

I really fail to understand where people get the idea that the 10th Amendment allows for secession?
I see this on CWTBB, on FB, and other sites, but where do they get where it's allowed FROM the 10th Amendment? Is this a "talking point" taught somewhere, a "vague" notion that's used because it can't be proven/disproven somehow?
