<The original wording is "high crimes and misdemeanors.">

That's right. And the House of Representatives, who MAKE the laws, determine what the "high crime or misdemeanor" IS. Then, the Senate decides if the president is guilty of it.

I suggest you read the Federalist Papers to get a feel for where the Founders were coming from. Remember, the MAIN thing they wanted to prevent was some future "King George"!
