[EL] Stern on Tillman on Whether Presidents are Bound by the Emoluments Clause

[John Tanner]

The Emoluments Clause is terra incognita to me as, I suppose it is to most of us.  I was struck, however, by Stern’s breathless comment:   


If Tillman’s reading is correct, then an official who is impeached could still have another turn in an elected office, including the presidency.

Alcee Hastings was, of course, impeached and subsequently elected to Congress, where he continues to sit.  I don’t consider this dispositive of or particularly important to the Emoluments Clause issue, but am curious whether there are other such examples
