I see the parallels--men in power who are more interested in personal  
and executive power than the rights of their people.

The monumental figures were those who stood up to those who would  
destroy liberty. The same thing will have to happen now.

Variation on Catch 22--The enemy is anyone who's trying to steal your  
Constitution, including your commander-in-chief. You can bet he'll  
claim he's doing it for your own good and protection.
