If Ulfric becomes high king, he might take all of Skyrim and turn the province against Cyrodiil, thus creating a splinter state and possibly another larger civil war (Probably destroying the beautiful forests and cities of Cyrodiil in the process). The Imperials are technically part of The Empire, which rules most of Tamriel. The people should support the current government, not some crazy barbarian who wants to overthrow the whole empire. Besides, if they want to overthrow the king, they should form a new militia and not just follow some random overconfident Jarl from one of the more remote areas of Skyrim. Also, if Ulfric does start a civil war in all of Tamriel, The Altmer could take this chance to invade Tamriel and take over. The new regime will be obviously worse, maybe even executing humans (Imperials, Redguards, Nords) or enslaving them because of their race.
