<<If we get rid of the independent prosecutor how do we investigate a real crime committed by the president?>> The same people that investigated the Nixon issues - the Congress as part of their impeachment hearings. The OIC is the embodiment of Congress delegating that investigatory power. If they decide not to keep the OIC statute, the power to investigate reverts to them. Of course, the responsibility to investigate has always been theirs. The OIC is a way to deflect any unpleasant publicity away from Congress to a third party.
