Apologies for intruding on your inbox. Dad said often that without the writ of habeas corpus (a most basic underpinning of freedom, to prevent arrest and imprisonment without charge or trial), he didn't see what hope we had as a country.

And he kept looking for someone - as in someone in the Senate - to stand up and say something.

I wish he'd seen it become the publicity device of a presidential candidate. From Diebold whistleblower Steve Heller:

"Sen. Chris Dodd (D. CT) is sponsoring a bill called the Restoring the
Constitution Act (RCA), and he is asking for citizen co-sponsors.

...

I can think of no issue more important than restoring the writ of habeas
corpus and returning America to a nation that will not torture people."

The Senate judiciary committee has approved a bill to restore habeas corpus. It should be voted on soon.

The Center for Constitutional Rights has information and an easy way to petition the government, while the First Amendment anyway still stands:

Your inbox is safe from now on. This issue (a singularly important one to be sure), as a particular concern of my Dad's, was special. I'll keep all my many issues to myself ;-)
