Later: I looked at the history and reverted out the 1861 section.

The section on 1861 secession probably doesn't belong to this article, and is rather strong POV.

Shouldn't we break out a separate Texas Revolution page?

Added a paragraph of background, including link to new T.R. Page.

Just added a section on internal politics. My sources for it were of varying reliability, and are as follows:
- Political factions -- 7th grade history (taken in 1986)
- List of presidents -- Museum at Washington-on-the-Brazos
- Diplomatic recognition of Texas -- The French Legation in Texas Vol I:Recognition Rupture, and Reconciliation, Nancy Nichols Barker 1971
- Burnet as acting president -- The French Legation in Texas Vol I:Recognition Rupture, and Reconciliation, Nancy Nichols Barker 1971 (surely there's a better source -- maybe "Lone Star"?!)
--Ben Brumfield
2005-01-09: This page tells me nothing about who the Texans were in 1836, and why the rebelled against Mexico. Most of the names are English-sounding. Does this mean that Texans spoke English? Were they the descendents of English settlers?
