The Constitution nowhere says what the president may or may not do in regards to Habeas Corpus.

Nowhere does it even remotely extend the right to suspend it to him.

As you know, Chief Justice Rehnquist disagrees with you.

Why would you marginlaize yourself my taking such unreasonable positions?

As you know, Chief Justice Rehnquist disagrees with you.

And as you know, Chief Justices Marshall and Taney disagreed in actual court opinions with Rehnquist's purported views from a speech at some law school. Two beats one, so you lose.
