There is, by the way, some opinion that Napoleon's exile to St. Helena was illegal, a violation of British law since there was no trial or other legal proceeding.

There's also an "opinion" that the articles of confederation still secretly govern us, that there's a secret constitutional amendment out there that bars lawyers from holding office, and that the Republic of Texas never entered into annexation with the U.S. I don't suspect that you would advocate any of them though, nor do I suspect you will be clamoring for Napoleon's return to the throne anytime soon.
