The Logan Act isn’t worth the bandwidth that Adobe uses to read it.
I believe you are right about that.
But remember what happens when existing laws are not enforced. They do exist for a reason: to prevent conflict and establish an orderly society, beyond their specific application to activity proscribed.
When laws are not enforced , order is lost.
When order fails, matters are settled in other ways.
This is a fact few remember when they do not enforce immigration law or laws like the Logan Act.
I believe that Obama has violated the Logan act on at least two ocassions and maybe more, as in sending his aid to talk with Ahminajihad in New York.
He likely violated the Logan act in Kenya by campaigning for Odinga who had promised to bring Sharia law ( and terrorism) to Kenya.
And Obam violated it again if he did indeed attempt to influence the Iraqi government to refuse the position of our president on troop withdrawals.
What Obama may not realize, is that this activity makes him fair game for intelligence agencies around he world who may not favor such interference by him. Obama, in conducting himself as if the Logan Act does not apply to him, may very well suffer consequences beyond his imagining. Certainly even our President may not have the resouces to protect Obama. He is likely at extreme risk because of these activities, and no good will come of it.
