The letter referenced a textbook that supposedly outlined 'steps to overturn a democracy,' such as: 1) Divide the nation philosophically. 2) Foment racial strife. 3) Cause distrust of police authority.
He told us he couldn't remember the name of the college textbook he referenced, though he recalled having the book in 1954 when he attended"Napa College," or what is now calledWe asked Alber if he had anything to add regarding his letter,"Opinion From a Former Judge." He shared the following:
At the time I read [the steps to overturn a democracy] back in 1954, I thought, 'That could never happen. That would be a nightmare.' And it would be disastrous for this country if that ever did happen. Years later, when it was happening, the attempt to achieve those goals was a reality. I became very alarmed. I have pretty much dedicated my life to the justice system and laws. I was a bench officer for 25 years in the Superior Court, and I've been interviewed by many news people.
On the subject of politics, Alber told us,"I don't have any comment about politics. It's not my specialty. And, so I don't say anything about it." "I'm like Voltaire," he added."I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend your right to say it." In sum, yes, Alber wrote the virally shared article that was titled,"Opinion from a Former Judge," and listed nine steps on how to overturn a democracy. This story will be updated if we receive any additional information about the textbook to which he referred in his letter.Hart, Ron. “A Former Judge Sums It up, and Gives Me a Week Off.”
