If you mean were there any US Presidents who were impeached who also happen to be preachers, then the answer is no. Of all the US Presidents, only one was a preacher. That person was President James Garfield. He was elected as the 20th US President in the election of 1880. He became the fourth Republican President, and the third Republican President from Ohio. He was the last person to ascend to the Presidency directly from the House of Representatives. He took office in 1881, and was assassinated shortly thereafter by a "a disgruntled office seeker" who's name I don't recall. There have been two US Presidents who have been impeached, or formally accused of "... high Crimes and Misdemeanors" by the House of Representatives. The 17th US President, Andrew Johnson of Tennessee, was the first US President to be impeached. During his trial by the Senate, he was spared the humiliation of removal from office by a margin of only one vote. The 42nd US President, William Jefferson Clinton of Arkansas, was the second US President to be impeached. During his trial by the Senate, he was spared the humiliation of removal from office by a margin of seventeen votes.
