To accuse a judge of a crime is called impeachment. If an official is found guilty of a crime they can be impeached and removed from their appointment.
Any president can be impeached if the circumstances warrant it. However, only the US House of Representatives can impeach a US President. [Article I, section 2, paragraph 5, clause 2] Once a President has been impeached (accused), then the Senate would try that President. If and only if two thirds of the Senators voted guilty would that President be removed from office.

But it should be noted that President Obama has a very high satisfaction rate among US citizens and has been elected to the presidency for a second term; thus, it is doubtful that he would be impeached, even if his political opponents wish it would happen.
