What are the crimes of Bill Clinton?
Bill Clinton denied harrassing and having affairs with female colleagues. He swore under oath that he had not had improper relationships with Monica Lewinsky, but it was eventually proved that he had had an out-of-marriage relationship, so he was indicted for purgery. The case never made court, as he agreed to an out-of-court settlement in compensation and was stripped of his law license. He finished his term in office with 65%approval, the highest rating of any president since the Second World War. He committed other crimes , but was never brought to court.
No bill Clinton hasn't died yet and is still healthy as a horse.
How would you describe the bill of rights?
The "Bill of Rights"are amendments to the Constitution. The Bill of Rights was primarily established because the legal protection the Constitution provided to Americans was incomplete. The Bill of Rights ensures protection of the natural rights of liberty and property including freedom of speech, free press, free assembly and free association. It is also stated in the Bill of Rights that an individual is guaranteed a speedy, public trial with an impartial jury. In addition, the Bill of Rights reserves for the people any rights not specifically mentioned within the Constitution and also reserves all powers not granted to the federal government to the people or the States.
I would had, the Bill of Rights only applied to the Federal Government. For example, though the Federal Government was not allowed to establish a religion, many states including Massachusetts continued to have State religions.
The Bill of Rights contains the individual rights guaranteed to all Americans: they include freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of the press (what we today call the media), and freedom to petition the government for a redress of grievances (in other words, to protest or let the government know if you don't like what is being done). The Founding Fathers did not want America to ever go back to being a monarchy where a king decided what the citizens could and could not do. The Bill of Rights put into the Constitution the specific rights that all Americans were entitled to have.
How was Bill Clinton still president after being impeached?
Technically no, because he was acquitted.
President Clinton was impeached by the US House of Representatives on December 19, 1998, on charges of lying under oath to a federal grand jury and obstruction of justice.
Impeachment is like indictment by a grand jury: The House reviews evidence, then votes whether they should file formal charges -- called articles of impeachment -- against a government official (in this case, the President). If a simple majority (51%) votes in favor of impeachment (filing charges), then the case goes to trial in the Senate. No one can be removed from office unless found guilty in a Senate trial.
On February 12, 1999, the Senate acquitted (found not guilty) President Clinton of the charges (articles of impeachment) against him, so he stayed in office. If two-thirds of the Senators present had voted for conviction (to find him guilty), he would have been removed from office.
Is Bill Clinton related to george Clinton?

How old do representatives need to be to run for office?
I suppose running for the office could be done at any age over the age of majority unless there is a statute or constitutional provision in a state for a state position that requires an older age. Under the US Constitution, to become a Member of the House, you would still have to be at least 25.
What prestigious English university did Bill Clinton attend?

Should President Clinton have been impeached?
SHORT ANSWER: IS YES. The scandal had become so obvious and the popular response so negative that impeachment had become the 'Will Of The People'. the reasons why it got so hot - are the social-political topics that history will discuss.
YET: the whole affair (as detailed Below) would not have come to light (or kept there) except by the actions of 'The Free Press'. That is another question.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That question has been the topic of heated debate. One side says yes, he committed perjury and obstruction of justice; the other side says his actions didn't rise to the level of an impeachable offense.
The charge of perjury arose from the President denying he had a sexual relationship with Monica Lewinsky in a deposition given to attorneys for Paula Jones' civil suit against Clinton for sexual harassment. The relationship with Jones occurred while Clinton was Governor of Arkansas, and was not contemporaneous with his presidency. The Jones case was later dismissed by the court because Clinton's affair with Jones didn't involve coercion, promise of a job, promotion, or other criteria for sexual harassment.
Before Clinton testified in the House of Representatives, his DNA was matched to semen stains on a dress Monica Lewinsky kept after one of their encounters. When asked about the relationship before Kenneth Starr's impeachment committee, Clinton acknowledged having an "inappropriate relationship" with Lewinsky (the evidence was irrefutable). So the perjury charges stemmed from Clinton's contradictory testimony in the civil deposition.
Similarly, the obstruction of justice charges arose from Clinton's attempt to deny the affair with Lewinsky and to his unsuccessful attempt to postpone the civil action until the end of his Presidency. The impeachment charges had nothing to do, directly, with Clinton's affair with Lewinsky; they were related to the earlier affair with Paula Jones.
Clinton's own lawyers acknowledged his actions were "morally reprehensible," but the impeachment apparently hinges on a single lie told in a deposition for a lawsuit unrelated to his presidency. Although he lied to the press and American public about his relationship with Lewinsky, that isn't a chargeable offense.
According to the Constitution, the President can be impeached for committing "high crimes and misdemeanors," but the definition is vague and not part of the standard legal lexicon. Whether Clinton's actions were sufficiently egregious to justify impeachment is arguable and a matter of opinion.

What did Bill Clinton do to help America?
Perhaps the most outstanding event that is part of US President Bill Clinton's legacy was in the area of economics. Clinton, under the pressure of the Congress, took major steps towards producing a balanced Federal budget. This was indeed an achievement considering the fact that most of the time in recent US history, the Federal government always ran its finances with significant deficits. In other words, the Federal government spent more funds than it received from taxes, tariffs and other forms of taxation such as gasoline taxes.
Yes. President Clinton was charged with two articles of impeachment for perjury and obstruction of justice relative to Paula Jones' civil suit against Clinton for sexual harassment.
The House voted to impeach on December 19, 1998; Clinton's Senate trial began on January 14, 1999, with Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist presiding.
On February 12, 1999, President Clinton was acquitted of perjury charges by a vote of 55-45, and of obstruction of justice by a vote of 50-50. Conviction required a two-thirds vote of the Senate (at least 67 or 100).

Who was the only US President to be impeached?
There have been 2 Presidents Impeached in the U.S. history. The 17th president Andrew Johnson was impeached by the House of Representatives in 1868 for violation of the Tenure in Office Act of 1867. However, the Senate was one vote short of convicting Johnson.
The 42nd president Bill Clinton was impeached in 1998 by the House for perjury and obstruction of justice. As with Johnson, the Senate could not come up with the two-thirds majority to convict Clinton.
President Nixon was not impeached. While the House issued articles of impeachment for bribery, obstruction of justice, illegal wiretapping, and bribery Nixon resigned the Presidency before the House voted for impeachment. Most certainly had he not resigned he would have been impeached.
