The patriots had to first know that the Redcoats were indeed marching and how they would be going.
And when it was affirmed the lamps were then lit and their vigilance was rewarded.
One if by land, two if by sea.
They go hand in hand.
What about the knowledge of Obama’s recent history of ignoring any rule, law, or constitutional constraint that gets in his way?
EVERYTHING you say makes perfect sense, BUT I don’t think Morris’ argument -regardless of his personal credibility- should be too easily dismissed... as you yourself noted above.
Any who says ‘Obama can’t do this and he can’t do that’ is missing the point, imho- he will attempt anything he thinks he can possibly get away with!
Constitutional law and treaty technicalities mean little to him... meaning this info don’t do much for his opponents, either. If such knowledge allows one to rest assured “he can’t get away with this”, therein lies the real danger... that’s why I’m focused on vigilance, i.e. loopholes and even the most fringe possibilities of what this megalomaniac/narcissist MAY attempt to do- when his type is desperate, one shouldn’t restrain their imagination if they hope to restrain him
