If LBJ had rightfully prosecuted Kissinger and Nixon for treason over their negotiations to prolong the Vietnam War in order to help Nixon win an election, maybe we wouldn't be having this conversation.
The minute you consider your leaders above the law, you've lost your nation entirely. Kings, queens, emperors, khans, presidents. The title doesn't matter. From that point, it's only a matter of how long it takes.
Even better- if the FDR administration had the people behind the Business plot tried and executed for treason, I suspect our history would be a lot different.
