"a few members were even told there would be martial law in America"???

Don't be 'fraid. As someone once said about 76 years ago: "We have nothing to fear but fear itself." I had thought FDR meant not to fear our enemies and I interpreted this quote, that I knew all my life, in light of 9/11 and the terrorist threats. Unreasonable fear of terrorism will lead to unreasonable response to attacks (i.e. Iraq).

I now understand “fear” in relation to what FDR had in mind. Fear of economic collapse by the masses will lead there. We need a new confidence in our ability to rise above our problems. Fear will make people horde their money for better times thereby exacerbating the problems (as the banks are doing now with our bail out money). The 2000’s will be known as the decade of fear, unreasonable fear brought on by the Republican political machine. I hope Obama can bring us out of our of our collective slump.
