Don't recall exactly but when this first began an ABA or other regulation was changed allowing nonlawyers to be partners in law firms. The freeper consensus at the time was that the change was specially designed to help Clinton should he lose his law license. I probably have this garbled. Anyone remember the exact details?

I don't remember the details of that rule change, but I do remember it was made while Clinton was still president, and that it would allow him to serve in positions like directorships of investment banks.
