If Obama pardons her, can Trump un-pardon her?

I have no idea how someone can be pardoned for a crime they aren't charged or convicted for, but say Obama does.

Once Trump takes office, can't he just remove the pardon?

Yes they can be pardoned with no charges pending and No he can't undo it.

Would require a constitutional amendment.

She won't be charged until 2017

I'm willing to bet she won't be convicted of anything until after inauguration. And if it's for anything, it will be the Foundation that takes her down.

Executive Order. Obama used them all the time for anything he wanted right?

Doesn't a person have to be found guilty first before a pardon is offered?

Don't assume Trump won't pardon her himself.

He can but he has to be specific in the parameters of the pardon.

He cannot pardon her for any and all unknown crimes. Has to state what he is doing.

Let the foundation investigation play out

I would ignore the other stuff even though criminal.

I'm by no means a legal scholar but I think that Ford's pardon of Nixon was kind of a stretch at the time. But for better or worse, it stood unchallenged.
