Letter: Just who should be impeached?

As a member of the populace, I wonder about some of the things going on in D.C.

If a president lies to the people and hides crimes, shouldn’t he be impeached and prosecuted?

If a president meddles in elections, shouldn’t he be removed from office?

If a president and his cabinet members make secret deals with hostile foreign nations, isn’t that possibly treason? Aiding and abetting the enemy is serious.

I think we can all agree on these things. We want our government to be free from reproach.

With this in mind, why aren’t Obama, Kerry and Hillary behind bars?
