Hey, Obama, can I get one of those preemptive pardons also.

A “humbling experience”. Vomit.
The issuance of and acceptance of a pardon is an admission of guilt.
Animal Farm politics. We never learn.
So da ho IS GUILTY! Cool.
Hmm...if it turns out to be a pardon for any crimes, past, present, and future, watch out. Fort Marcy Park may not be big enough to contain all the bodies...
I have conjectured that the WH is letting the current investigation run its course to make sure that the pardon has a sufficiently wide scope.
How can she be pardoned without being convicted?
Freeloaders don’t care if you’re a criminal. All they want is more free stuff. Clinton backers are criminals too.
A real resume enhancer. Candidate comes with her own “get out of jail free” card.
The human toilet Hillary Clinton isn't going to do any of that.
How can you be pardoned for something before you are indited or convicted of a crime?

Maybe they should wait until BO is out of office before issuing their findings.
Richard Nixon.
The problem would be in how to write the pardon. Do you pardon her for compromising email security requirements? Do you pardon her for violating the security of the SOS SAP spaces with her and staff’s blackberry system?
Do you pardon her for selling her office of SOS and its influence for an entire six years for payments to their fake foundation. Do you pardon her for influence purchase by exorbitant speaking fees to her husband buying influence? Do you pardon her for Benghazi failings? Do you pardon her for protecting the Obama 2012 campaign by stopping security improvements in Lybia? Do you pardon her for just her entire term as SOS?
The pardon would have to read like a novel.
Ford pardoned Nixon for any crimes that Nixon might have committed (it was full, and unconditional). The precedence is there. And because Ford was a Republican, the GOP really would have trouble arguing against a similar Obama pardon of Hillary.
I’m open to correction, but doesn’t a pardon effectively eliminate her right against self incrimination? If called to testify, it’s speak honestly or jail. Not that Congress would call her.
That is exactly why no pardon will be issued before the election.
This is something that needs to be openly discussed during the campaign, after the conventions. Some questions for her heinous:
Will you decline to accept a pardon if offered?
If you did nothing wrong, why are we even discussing the possibility of a pardon?
Will you agree to allow the FBI to release the unredacted results of their investigation?
I still believe: Biden-Warren will be the ticket.
