<body class='hmmessage'>After reviewing the US Constitution, I did find one instance where a part of the Constitution may be suspended.<BR>
<BR>
Article 1, Section 9, Clause 2 . . .<BR>
<BR>
"Clause 2: The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it."<BR>
<BR>
Our nation is neither in rebellion nor is it being invaded.<BR>
<BR>
In the history of our nation this clause has been used ONLY once; during the Civil War by President Lincoln.<BR>
<BR>
I anxiously await "Arnold's" response to the previously posted questions.<BR>
