I am Alwaysprime, and I have this to say to President Barack Obama. My dear friend if I may, you risk messing up the weave of the United States of America by maintaining the destruction of its basic pattern. The core function of the pattern that I see you messing up is the 4th amendment. Your job is to defend this right among other things. Some say that the execution of the defence of the homeland part of your job supersede the 4th. I would argue that defence of the 4th is foremost because it is part of what defines us , and allows us to maintains a healthy democracy. If we allow and external threat, or the threat of a threat, to convince us to give up these basic rights then what are we fighting for.  

 I posit that the basic tenet of common law, the law of the land, states that one is innocent until proven guilty. By tracking all of us you bring this into question, its as if we must prove our innocent by our behaviour. A mandatory characteristic of a healthy democracy is civil divergence of idea's, this is how we grow. By grasping the power to see all you limit the growth of all of us. Grasp this, and then respectful release your grasp while helping to putting in well structured restrictions and capabilities.   By limiting our collective growth you do two basic things one you slow innovation, a great American strength, two you narrow the differences between our system and an authoritarian state, this is not something I want to see.  So I kindly recommend my dear friend that you reverse course
publicly and work instead for a better future. If you would like to hear my thoughts on this do reach out.

To be corrected is not wrong, to not correct is wrong.
