| I was musing regarding wrongdoing in government, especially the Executive Branch and with a particular focus on the President of the USA. This office(POTUS) is so powerful and so consistently tempted to crime that I would like to see a new development in our system.
I think that in every election cycle, there should be elected a Special Prosecutor whose only task is to hound the President and charge him(or her) with the crimes committed while in office. There should be NO executive privilege to shield paperwork or electronic communication from the Prosecutor. In order to prevent collusion between the office of the SP and the POTUS, safeguards should be built in. But what would the safeguards consist of?
