I don't think stockpiling and arming the citizenry will facilitate such a rebellion. It would need to be well organized, essentially by a state-in-exile or a seceding group of states. Then, the question for the rebels would be whether the new boss turned out to be essentially the same as the old boss.
On another note entirely, you man want to watch PBS's American Creed. David Kennedy and Condoleezza Rice attempt to peg just what is America and American. They seem to be putting emphasis on inclusiveness, service, and working together. In this they are leaning blue, but even more so they are pushing working together to solve a crisis. The theme was S&Hish, of getting together and not being self oriented.
Just one thing leaning towards a cyclical reality, pursuing collective crisis values, not selfish unraveling, but it is hardly strange to see PBS pushing blue values. If I had to push just one thing it would be balance, but the cycle seems more likely.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
