Remove the ability to pardon any appointee or appointee staffer or have an appointee pardon them. keeps everyone honest.

Created by S.M. on January 18, 2013

If the ability is there for an appointee to be pardoned then you just have them do the unlawful actions and give them a walk. There is no more accountability in the government. After the precedent of Nixon pardoning his original vice president and then appointing a new one who became president and then pardoned him, we have accepted that government officials are above the law. That needs to end today. The people elected to serve us need to know that there will be serious consequences for breaking the law.
