Amazingly, at least one person here believes the POTUS is above the law. @Buy1Sell2 still hasn't provided a cite to law indicating that NO laws apply to POTUS. Nor has he cited law indicating that SOME, or A FEW laws only; apply to POTUS. So, insofar as laws apply to citizens, then those same laws apply to POTUS ... unless the law itself excludes POTUS. No one has cited any such lawful exclusions. I'm not POTUS, so it doesn't affect me; but if one is going to be preaching that the POTUS is above the law ... at least show us where the law states that. So to me, it's more logical to first establish that the POTUS is excluded from at least ONE criminal statute; then we can debate whether other exclusions exist. The onus is on the one making that (currently) unusual claim; to support that claim.
Anyone with any common sense can see that presidents are above the law. No president has ever been charged and/or convicted of any crime committed during presidency or as a result of presidency, yet many would say that evidence exists of crimes committed. ----Thus, presidents are above the law.
Notice that Nixon was never charged with a crime and Ford pardoned him in case he would have been. This is prima facie evidence that presidents are well above the law.
No-----he is the sole member. When the Vice President takes over for the president, then he is the sole member. All the power lies with the president , not the Vice president.
"In case he would have been". That sounds to me like prima facie evidence that the jury is out on presidents being above the law.
You guys just don't get it. Any president whom is forced from office or their term ends, will be pardoned by the next president. ---Presidents are above the law. Show me one president that has been charged or convicted for something they did in office.
