Alex, if Gore is elected President will he pardon Clinton if Clinton is convicted of perjury, obstruction of justice, etc.?

....I remember my Mothers disbelief when Nixon resigned,
I remember that day very clearly, I was living in South Houston a few blocks from Gilley's working as a pipe-fitter's assistant. When Nixon spoke on TV I went down the block to a convienence store and bought a bottle of Cold Duck champage to celebrate. I popped the cork and raised the bubbling bottle in toast in the parking lot, where I was observed by various other workers from the ship channel. A long chase ensued in which I believe I barely escaped with my life. Good experience, it convinced me I should go back to college.

Resigning was at least some sort of resolution, although it is true that Nixon's continued maintenance of innocence undercut the gesture. In Clinton's case, there was not even that degree of "closure", to use the current cant phrase. Instead, it just got worse and worse, as the Democrats jeered over the inability of the Republicans to make a full trial and secure removal.......
