  There's no actual law that says that. It's been a policy of the DOJ not to indict a sitting president, but there's no law preventing it.
context: Dammit, is there a Classified Document fairy leaving them randomly strewn about? >
  
  It's paper. How often have you accidently shuffled something important into a pile you didnt mean to? He was the VP at the time. Nothing has been found in any non-work area. I'd bet this happens every 4 yrs but it's making news cycles now because it's being looked for to be an issue.  I'm not saying if documents were mishandled out of the ordinary there shouldn't be repercussions. I'm just saying we elect humans. >
  
  As part of my job, I have to carry somewhat sensitive paper documents from location to location. If I left them somewhere, I’d be fired instantly and possibly sued. Why lower expectations for government officials? >
  
  Ehhh, stating that your company has a better way to handle sensitive documents than the government isn't the brag you may think it is. Government isn't the playground of the smart. It's the playground of the rich and nepotism. >
  
  I mean. Investigate it obviously. We're not a cult. If he did something wrong, charge him. >
  
  Well since he's president, impeachment and removal would be the remedy here not charges, but agreed. If he did wrong he deserves the consequences. >
  
  He wasn't president at the time. He was VP. He can absolutely get charged legally. They would, however, defer the charges until he was out of office as they always do. >
  
  I wasnt implying he couldn't face charges after he's out of office, that is always an option. But at this point since he is president, the only course of action is impeachment, that was more my point
