Will the military obey the Constitution and arrest Bush?

First, "The report, by visiting professor Jeffrey Record" indicates this

was
one man's opinion, not that of the War College.


A visiting professor at the Army War College who usually teaches the same
classes at the Air Force equivalent, apparently.


Second, the militray doesn't have the legal right to arrest the President,
and I challenge anyone to demonstrate otherwise.


Hmmmmm.... Can an American civilian ever be arrested by the military? Can a
commanding officer ever be arrested by orders of a subordinate? If the
answer to both of those is "yes," then it is conceivable (but not terribly
likely) that the President of the USA could be arrested by the military. I
wouldn't want to be the poor SP/MP ordered to make the arrest however...
