Answer 1

Impeachment is similar to indictment, meaning accused of a crime to stand trial for. The house votes to impeach, then senate votes if the president is to be removed from office. Both cases of presidents being impeached--Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton--resulted in a acquittal by the Senate. (Nixon only had articles of impeachment passed by a house committee, but was never formally impeached.)

Answer 2

President Clinton was impeached. Impeachment is the bring of charges against the president by the House of Representatives. The Senate chose not to try him. So, although he was impeached, he was not removed from office.

Answer 3
