Impeachment By: Emma Wall

http://www.cnn.com/2015/12/02/americas/brazil-rousseff-impeachment/index.html

The passage above is discussing the possible impeachment of the president of Brazil. She does not understand where these arguments against her are coming from.  The claims say that she took money from the state-oil company that she once was the president of.  (She accepted money illegally)

I chose this because I can relate this to the impeachment of Andrew Johnson.  Their cases might be different, but it still shows that the president also has limitations.  It is good to know that congresses in other countries also have the right to impeach a president.  It provides reassurance that nobody has complete control over a country.
