The constitution actually forbids anybody who was impeached and convicted from holding office:
Article 1, Section 3, Last Paragraph: Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law. Later, it also states that a person convicted of impeachment cannot be pardoned by the President. > -----Original Message----- > From: Heald, Tim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2003 12:35 PM > To: CF-Community > Subject: RE: Clinton wants to change the 22nd amendment. > > Hey now, > I've been arrested, and convicted, of drunk drving.
