7. ABA doesn't equal the State Bars

The ABA is a professional organization. They do not license, discipline, or have power over lawyers. The vast majority lawyers are not even members of the ABA. It's up to the Florida State Bar to discipline Bondi and being that its Florida I doubt that will happen. Also, the Attorney General does not need to be an actual lawyer. I believe basically all have been, but Constitutionally its not required.
