Larry, the Senate has the power to decide, as part of a conviction, whether also to bar the person from future national office.  That does not follow automatically from conviction but can and has been added to Senate impeachment convictions.

Best,
Rick

Subject: [EL] After impeachment and removal

If a President is impeached and then convicted by the Senate and removed from office, could he run again for President at the next election? I know this once would have seem a preposterous notion, but we are living in preposterous times.
