The Magna Carta required the king (as executive) to be bound by law. Which of these statements best reflects how this idea applies to the U.S. Bill of Rights?

Verified Answer :

In the U.S. Bill of Rights, nobody is exempt or above of the law, meaning that even the president can have charges pressed against him/her. If the president is convicted of a crime, they can possibly be impeached, or thrown out of the presidency. This idea was directly influenced by Magna Carta, as many ideas were also. Hope this helps! :)

The government isn't above the law of the will of people
