Had someone other than Clinton given the same testimony in similar circumstances, would the US Attorney likely bring felony perjury charges?

back when this was fresh, 20/20, I believe (i think it was Cathryn Crier) did a story on people who were actually prosecuted for perjury in very similar (except for the president aspect) circumstances. I can't remember the facts but I recall the story profiled 2 or 3 people who actually served time for very similar perjurious events, eg: they lied about what could be characterized as irrelevant affairs in depos or on the stand.
