On-Line Index Page

This page links to answers for ten questions related to both the Constitutional theory of the book, and the context of this theory in both the Nixon-Clinton impeachment, and in current events. The answers to these questions include excerpts from the book.

Question One: What is a quick summary of the Constitutional theory advanced in the book?

Question Two: How is this theory different from the current understanding of the Constitution's provisions for impeachment and removal from office?

Question Three: Is there a quick argument to show the theory might be right?

Question Four: Suppose this theory is right. Why is it important?

Question Five: How much do I need to read to be able to tell if this theory is right?

Question Six: Did the Constitutional Convention really intend for a Judiciary court to cause removal from office?

Question Seven: If this theory is correct, what does it mean for office-holders other than the President?

Question Eight: Does anyone else think any Federal office-holder can be removed from office in a way other than impeachment?

Question Nine: Why is the book called the Nixon-Clinton impeachment? Aren't these two impeachment proceedings separate events, 25 years apart?

Question Ten: Even if Clinton did something wrong, wasn't his wrongdoing too trivial to require removal from office?
