    Constitutional Grounds for Impeachment

    The US Constitution is the foundation of our legal system. It was written and adopted by the Founding Fathers at the Federal Convention in 1787. The Constitution spells out the process by which Bush can be impeached.

    Article II, Sec. 4 states that:

    "The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors."

    Impeachable offenses include clear violations of criminal law but also misconduct that undermines the integrity of the office or violations of public trust that injures the state.

    Article 1, Section 2 states:

    "The House of Representatives shall choose their Speaker and other Officers; and shall have the sole Power of Impeachment."

    That means that the House of Representatives, not the Senate, is the body that starts the process. They are the one who would formally accuse High Crimes or Misdemeanors.

    Article 1, Section 3 states:

    The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present.
    Steps Toward Impeachment

    1. Impeachment starts informally with the people.

    2. A member of the House of Representatives refers charges to the House Judiciary Committee. OR, using a little known precedent, a State Legislature can pass a Resolution of Impeachment and transmit that to the US House through their Representative.

    3. The House Judiciary Committee considers the charges and adopts a resolution to conduct an inquiry.

    4. House of Representatives passes the resolution by a majority vote.

    5. The House Judiciary Committee conducts the inquiry or investigation into the crimes.

    6. The House Judiciary Committee approves articles of impeachment by a majority.

    7. The House of Representative debates each article and passes at least one with a majority vote. Bush is now officially "impeached".

    8. The Senate conducts a trial and convicts with a 2/3 majority vote.

    9. The President, and/or his VP and others, are removed from office.
