Either we are a nation of laws or we are not. If Obama committed these crimes he should get a fair trial and conviction (if proved beyond a shadow of a doubt and judged guilty by a jury of his peers).
If you want leniency your options are:
admission of everything he did in exchange for leniency
presidential pardon
I think that in the event of a conviction a presidential pardon is a 100% certainty.

Let him live as a disgraced, hated traitor afraid to show his face in our country again.
