I don't see any language there equivalent to: "The President may not ever suspend the Writ of Hebeas Corpus."
Where do you see that?
If you are going to play this game, I can count on you to never say that secession is legal either --based on Article one, Section one. Right?

And I don't see any language there equivalent to: "The Executive Power herein granted, in which the the Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus may be suspended in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it, shall be vested in the President of the United States."
Such is said of the legislature though, making it unreasonable and irrational to conclude that the power to suspend habeas corpus exists with anyone other than the legislature.

Only insofar as I can count on you to hold that suspending habeas corpus is a legislative power and in doing so concede that The Lincoln was in error. Fat chance of that last part ever happening with you though, so I guess that settles it.
