"And she accuses the president of killing her son"

Doesn't this rise to the level of slander, since it would be easy to prove "malice" on her part???

I'm talking from a legal standpoint. Any legal-eagle Freepers out there who can educate me on this?

(I know it WOULDN'T happen...but COULD it?)

From a legal standpoint it's too early on Sunday morning to write a legal analysis so let me cut to the quick: No, not even a remote chance.

I can't answer your question but the President would never pursue that line. It would raise her visibility to a level that she can only dream of now.

Another legal fine point to consider - can a first lady be slandered easier than a holder of a public office?

It should. God knows it was the most malicious thing I'd ever read.
