Why do you think that there would have been no difference? Do you not
belive that Andre/Nancy (or any other Libertarian types) would *not*
have taken a different stance towards: take your pick, but relevant to
cypherpunks, about Clipper & the other surveillance plans?

I'm still reasonably satisfied to have voted for Clinton. I don't think

I think DOJ, FBI, and NSA would have proceeded in exactly the same way,
regardless of who was in the White House. They would have gone straight to
Congress if necessary.
