Comey investigated President Clinton's pardons. He was obsessed with finding something they did wrong and the only thing he could find was one lie about a bj. Poor thing.

To change the pardon power we'd need to amend the Constitution.

I don't think this statement is correct, unless it is limited to the notion that it should be eliminated. I haven't researched it, but there may be room for congress to legislate certain elements of what the power entails, how it is effectuated to be valid, and the like.
