ABSTRACT
In our post-9/11 world, the case of President Bill Clinton's extramarital affair, impeachment, acquittal, and legal disbarment almost seems like ancient history. So much has happened since, and our world has been transformed in so many ways. That being said, the Clinton episode is a benchmark historical moment. Only two presidents have been impeached, and in the language of the U.S. Constitution, impeachment is serious, involving removal from office due to “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.”
