Impeach Jefferson!

From LRC, 2004:

Impeach Jefferson!

Posted by Stephan Kinsella on February 26, 2004 04:47 PM

A French-German Tulane law student acquaintance of mine (he speaks nine languages–I only speak about 0.7), Frederic Sourgens [now a practicing attorney], sent me his Inn of Court brief where he argues for the impeachment of President Jefferson for undertaking the unconstitutional Louisiana Purchase. A bit rough, but fun. After 30 pages of legal reasoning, it concludes:

President Jefferson must be removed from office because of his blatant disregard of the Constitution constituting a high misdemeanor of state and high treason against the United States.
