The biggest threat since Southern secession? Hell, I almost wish the South had won (damn that slavery obsession). They fought for State's rights and we'd be in a lot better shape right now had Lincoln acceded to their demands.
In any case, I would argue that the biggest threat this nation has ever faced was F.D.R.s attempt to pack the supreme court, along with his slew of unconstitutional "New Deal" programs. This nation has never come so close to losing its' freedom as it did then. IMO, the creation of a central bank isn't far behind on that list.
Obama's administration is a history-making one indeed. And since we have not learned, we are doomed to repeat history.
