How can Obama pardon Hillary if she’s never been convicted of anything?
The precedent was set by Ford, who pardoned Nixon for any and all crimes he *might* have committed while President.
Nixon was never formally charged with a crime. Ford pardoned him. “Now, THEREFORE, I, GERALD R. FORD, President of the United States, pursuant to the pardon power conferred upon me by Article II, Section 2, of the Constitution, have granted and by these presents do grant a full, free, and absolute pardon unto Richard Nixon for all offenses against the United States which he, Richard Nixon, has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 20, 1969 through August 9, 1974.” http://watergate.info/1974/09/08/text-of-ford-pardon-proclamation.html
