This isn't a real proper diary.
It's just a quick announcement. Senator Bernie Sanders is asking for your opinion on domestic surveillance. For those who are interested, there's a poll on Bernie's page at the Senate.gov website.
Anyone may participate. There are 4 questions with a choice for "Agree," "Disagree," or "Unsure." You'll also be asked to provide your email address.
Here are the four questions:
Do you favor or oppose the National Security Agency's program to monitor online communications in order to protect the nation from terrorist threats?
Is it appropriate for the federal government to collect millions of phone records from American citizens, if doing so could potentially disrupt a terror plot?
Do you think the president should or should not have the power to authorize the National Security Agency to monitor the electronic communications of American citizens without getting warrants?
Do you favor or oppose changing the PATRIOT Act, which allows the government to collect the phone records of American citizens without a warrant?
When you're done, the page will display the results tallied so far.
