that Apprendi v. New Jersey, 530 U.S. 466 (2000), did not render

21 U.S.C. § 841 unconstitutional on its face, and by United

States v. Daugherty, 264 F.3d 513, 518 (5th Cir. 2001), which

rejected a Commerce Clause challenge to the felon-in-possession-

of-a-firearm statute, 18 U.S.C. § 922(g).     The Government’s
