Citizen’s Petition – a proposed edit

This essay is a proposed edit to the latest draft of Citizens Petition for a Special Prosecutor. I decided to put it in essay form so Buhdy would have access to the “edit” function, which will make it easier if he wants to pick and choose for the final product. I hope you’ll comment on the edits, but please don’t recommend. Thanks
