This has been spoken of before. I believe that this will be a very likely scenario. The melting pot experiment is just not working and people are going to want to have it their way. The break up of the United States is, in my opinion, a very possible outcome due to large looming debt and regional rebellions. Eventually the whole nation would collapse.
I know it sounds crazy, but America is on Earth, and as a Country on Earth full of Humans, it is not immune to the same social strife that foments radical changes in other parts of Earth. History has consistently proven the skeptics on this one wrong...Empires rise and fall, and just because you call it something else doesn't mean it isn't an Empire. History has allowed me to foresee quite a bit of what has been taking place over the last few years. History is a blueprint for the future, it is the foundations, one would be a fool to ignore it.
