> Should the people of North Dakota be able to take a vote and decide to become a Chinese province? They have the moral right to do so. But the ground reality

  Whether you have the moral right to do so is rather debatable. Morals are up to the individual. I would say that it would be a major national security issue and detriment to everyone else in the country if a state was allowed to secede to another country, especially a foreign adversary. In the United States nobody has the legal right to secede, even if a statehouse passes a law or holds a ballot vote on a constitutional amendment. As far as emigrating and gaining legal status elsewhere that’s up to the individual.
