True, maybe lawyers can help on this one. My cursory knowledge of the law tells me that the pardon Ford issued to Nixon would only be in effect for his time as president. It was an executive decree, much like all of the illegal decrees Obumbles has issued to subvert congress (see: Iran deal). Hence, Obumbles could issue that same blanket pardon but will only be in effect while he's president.

I'm not sure, but wouldn't Hillary have to be charged specifically to be absolved?

It will be easy to see coming...first a trial balloon in NYTs and Washington Post...then reports of her bad health. Then some old-school corrupt politician calling on her pardon for ‘healing’.
