Impeach? There needs to be grounds for impeachment, there needs to be evidence that the president/vice resident has done something illegal, and not just anything illegal. It has to be a high crime like treason, perjury or bribery. And EVEN if a president is ever impeached, that doesnt mean he is taken out of office. Remember now Clinton was impeached. For someone to be removed from office he would need to be impeached and then convicted by two-thirds both houses of congress. Also in the court case in which the president were to be impeached, the vice president would preside over the proceedings, and vise versa
The U.S goverment is so deeply corrupt that this would never happen. First of all all the documents that would prove a guilty party have already been "lost" or "destroyed". There are agencies out there to detect corruptions in the goverment, hell if they cant do it, how do you expect the average US citizen to?
Impeachment is extremely rare, only to be used in "extreme circumstances". Only 17 officials have ever been impeached. Among those 2 presidents (Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton).
I agree that many US citizens are at fault simply because of not voting. It is not your right to vote, it is not a priveledge. You should be fucking put in jail for not voting. But then again there are so many ignorant and just plain stupid people in this country I wouldnt expect them to actually look into the candidates. I swear to god if I ever hear another person complain about this presidency or the next but wouldnt take the time to put in an education vote Im gonna stab the american flag right through their heart. It just pisses me off so much that in this country we have an opportunity to elect someone to office. Sure it may be a little more complicated, but if everyone took the time to research the candidates and their views and plans, not just the propagandha spit out at rallys, then we would never have another George Bush.
Thus why Im moving out of this damned war monger of a country.
