The difference is that Clinton is crooked enough to do it:

FBI file theft...ten times worse than Watergate,

Ron Brown and the 35 aboard his plane,

And I recall reading the same thing on Fidonet and BBSs in the 80s that Reagan was going to do the same. Thereafter of course, it was Bush I. It's always "Suspend the constitution and declare himself leader".

Bunk then, bunk now.
