Has a US president ever been removed from office?
To date (2012), no U. S. President has been legally removed from office. Four Presidents, Abraham Lincoln, James Garfield, William McKinley and John F. Kennedy, were removed by assassination. Two Presidents, Andrew Johnson in 1868 and Bill Clinton in 1999, were impeached. Johnson's impeachment was due to violation of a law that he believed to be unconstitutional and that was passed over his veto specifically to limit his actions regarding Reconstruction. Clinton's impeachment was due to his perjury (lying under oath) while being questioned about his relationship with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. Johnson's impeachment failed by one vote, and Clinton's failed by 17 votes.
