I don't agree that there is some transcendent right to secede from the union. But in California's case it'll likely be a Mexican driven project if it happens. Mexicans that are relatively recent arrivals and whose forebearers came illegally in many cases. I think that severely undermines any moral argument on their behalf. It'd just amount to colonists grabbing land from the United States in effect.
