An Obama Pardon for Hillary?

[bblhd672]

Obama will pardon Clinton on his way out of the White House- but only because he knows that the Clintons will take him down with them if he doesn't.

Well that proves there are smarter folks than myself. I am weak in the political processes and I'm thankful for those that know better and look out for us that dont. No problem admitting that.

I really hope every one of these "Celebrities" hold true to their word. To me, that just clearly shows their feet arent on the ground and their heads are not in the clouds either.

Unfortunately, I don't expect a single one of them to keep their promise.

Their entire lives are just smoke and mirrors, so why should this be any different?

I agree but we can still hope. And shame on every one of them for creating a division instead of uniting. But then again, that same smoke and mirrors prevent them from seeing it as dividing folks. What would be funny is if Canada tells them, Nah, thats OK, we dont need you over here. LOL.

Just a couple of thoughts.

I've been mulling over the whole issue of BO pardoning HRC. Can the President pardon someone that hasn't been convicted of anything?

And the second thought is regarding why lesser populated states get two senators just like the more populated ones. That's because Senators used to be chosen by the state legislators and were representatives of the state and each states interests. I think it should still be like that and wish they would change it back.

Yes, Ford pardoned Nixon who hadn't even been charged with anything.

If he issues a pardon, (hopefully) it would mean her political career is over.

Abolishing the electoral college would mean a few corrupt, big-city, Democratic machines could assure all future presidential elections go Democratic.

If Obama takes this stance on giving Snowden a pardon, then there is no way he can give Hillary one. During his visit in Germany he was asked if he would pardon Snowden and here is his answer:

"Obama replied: "I can't pardon somebody who hasn't gone before a court and presented themselves, so that's not something that I would comment on at this point."

He's so full of it. He also said that he couldn't do anything about immigration laws either, but then decided he could later when he didn't get what he wanted from congress.

But, but, but...Obama, the FBI, and Hillary have stated she did nothing wrong. So, since she did nothing wrong, why would she need a Presidential Pardon?
