Hold Obama/Biden To This Promise: We Will Prosecute Criminals
ABC News notes:
Looking to the future but with one eye on the past, Biden also promised that an Obama-Biden government would go through Bush administration data with “a fine-toothed comb” and pursue criminal charges if necessary.
“If there has been a basis upon which you can pursue someone for a criminal violation,” he said, “they will be pursued, not out of vengeance, not out of retribution - out of the need to preserve the notion that no one, no one, no attorney general, no president, no one is above the law.”
This is, perhaps, one of the most important things that an Obama/Biden administration could do for the American people, in the long term.
