Can he legally run having been impeached??
Would make a mockery of the law I think....
Bill Clinton, President of the United States, was impeached by the House of Representatives on December 19, 1998, and acquitted by the Senate on February 12, 1999.
In all, 55 senators voted not guilty, and 45 voted guilty on the perjury charge. The Senate also acquitted on the charge of obstruction, with 50 votes cast as not guilty, and 50 votes as guilty

He was impeached, then his mates got him off...
Strange system when his "own" party can vote to acquit IMO..
