Who can arrest the President of the United States?

Any police officer could arrest him, although it would probably be the FBI or CIA...some federal agency.  The Senate and House would prosecute him (just like what happened to Clinton).

he can be impeached for high crimes and mistemeaners. So there would have to be a specific charge.  If he was given erroneous information and he thought it to be true, then it is not a lie.

Who decides who is a suspected terrorist? \n\nLet me remind you of this: \n\nAmendment IV\n\nThe right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized. \n\nThe patriotic and legal way to tap someone's phone is to get a warrant from a judge, not an executive order. \n\nThe problem is that the executive branch is bypassing the judicial branch.  There is no seperation of power.

It means that the president will be able to designate anyone he wants as an enemy combatant, for almost any reason.  As a result, you can be sent away to a secret prison, held indefinitely without being charged and without legal representation, and possibly tortured.  All in the name of fighting terrorism.  We might as well flush the Constitution down the toilet.

Its almost universally illegal, but enforcement varies from jurisdiction.  An arrest could possible arise, but there is a defense and you could sue the government for violation of constitutional protections (for an unlawful arrest).  See the dissent in Atwater v. Largo Vista.

There is no provision in the Constitution for a recall of the President.  The only recourse against a President is impeachment which is done by the Congress.  In order for the public to have the President removed, they would need to pressure their Congresspersons to impeach him.

Once elected and after Congress has certified the Electoral votes, a President of The United States may only be removed from office by Impeachment. The right to impeach public officials is secured by the U.S. Constitution in Article I, Sections 2 and 3, which discuss the procedure, and in Article II, Section 4, which indicates the grounds for impeachment: "the President, Vice President, and all civil officers of the United States shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors." Removing an official from office requires two steps: (1) a formal accusation, or impeachment, by the House of Representatives, and (2) a trial and conviction by the Senate. Impeachment requires a majority vote of the House; conviction is more difficult, requiring a two-thirds vote by the Senate. The vice president presides over the Senate proceedings in the case of all officials except the president, whose trial is presided over by the chief justice of the Supreme Court. Only two U.S. presidents have been impeached: Andrew Johnson, the seventeenth chief executive, and your favorite, William J. Clinton, the forty-second.

Who's policing the POLICE? The founders knew what they were doing when they set up the balance of power branches of government. Bush IS the executive branch which "enforces the laws" The law (fourth amendment) doesn't allow for "illegal search and seizure" Just another attempt to scare us into taking away our human (and constitutional)rights. Bush cannot say it's the law because I SAY SO!    "Those that give up liberty for the sake of security, deserve neither"!!!---Benjamin Franklin

I am pretty sure the president can pardon whoever he chooses.

There is a law against threatening the president but condoning it is another thing. The United States has freedom of speech and I don't think it is illegal to say that he deserved it  because everyone has different feelings and opinions about the president. If you are right then we do not have any freedom of speech rights in the US.

the president is the name of the president

The answer is no. If ever a president made such a move, to mantain power (emergency powers, anyone?), the congress, supreme court, and the people themselves would have the right and indeed, the responsibility to remove him from office, by force if necessary.\n\nEdit: Peace, why can you libs not just answer a question without blasting the president and regurgitating the same old talking points?

It's pretty clear that the president has done some illegal things, such as the warrantless wiretapping.  But only the congress can impeach the president, and as long as the majority of congress are Republicans, they are unlikely to do this.\n\nSo the only realistic way to get him impeached is to elect a majority of Democrats to congress in the fall 2006 election.

Can you make us? We still hold the White House. The president can call on emergency powers and make you go to a plantation. LOL! You still have nothing. LOL!

You will not get an honest answer for this question. PC is what you'll get.\n\nRealistically. that's not going to happen anytime soon in USA. He'll not make it that far because he'll be assassinated when he's nominated.

Only the US House of Representatives can impeach the President. The Republicans hold a majority in the House, so it's not very likely.
