[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guys.  This is a feature of the constitution. Not a bug.  Prosecuting current and former presidents is not a good thing. [/quote]

Where in the Constitution does it say this?[/quote]

It doesn’t say it but it offers a specifically remedy to remove for High Crimes and Misdemeanors.  And then the subsequent case law has ultimate concluded that qualified immunity is insufficient.  Absolutely immunity for decisions related to doing the job is what the Supreme Court found.  [/quote]

You are incorrectly reading into that clause that this is the only process and remedy for a President who commits a crime. That is a process for removing him from office. At issue here are separate proceeding seeking different relief: 1) criminal; 2) some civil matters; and 3) is whether he is eligible to run again.[/quote]

This is ALL about number 3.  This is all a blatant attempt to keep him off the ballot.  If he weren’t running again, I don’t think this would be happening at all.  [/quote]

Yes, if he just retired and stopped trying to run again, they would not be pursuing this.

But he can't stop himself.  So he will be be found ineligible.  And in criminal trouble.[/quote]
