Sagot :

One way in which President Andrew Johnson and President Bill Clinton are similar is that both were 4. acquitted by the Senate after being impeached. Andrew Johnson was impeached after removing his Secretary of War from office, breaking a law which stated the President could not remove Secretaries from the Cabinet without Congressional approval. Bill Clinton was impeached after it was discovered he lied under oath; when asked if he had had intimate relations with a White House aide, Monica Lewinsky, he stated "no," but then it was discovered that was false. However, both remained President because neither were found guilty by the Senate.
