Obviously, Paula Jones case had nothing to do with Clinton's job as President. It was related to his previous job as Governor. I don't quite understand your position. If you say that Paula Jones case should be investigated then Grand Jury was convened exactly for that purpose. Do you know some other venues of investigations? DNC?
