Vote Hillary! Rest assured, the email problem is NOT an issue.

[MariaThinks]

You see, it's not the private emails that were the problem (because everyone else was doing it). It was the fact that she had a private server. This is completely bogus and only raised because the first problem was refuted (just like the original witch-hunt focused on Benghazi). If private email was accepted, it makes no difference where the server was.

Hillary has been in some sort of public office most of her life now. Does anyone ever recall any issues with her handling of classified information before? And the real leaks in the past decade were not even through Hillary.

We fall into the GOP hands when we listen to their approach on trying to find issues to destroy candidates.

1. Your message is falling upon many deaf ears, and that is sad. No changing their minds

[guillaumeb]

2. Perhaps you should explain this to the FBI.

They might thank you.

[MariaThinks]

6. You again. You must find my posts fascinating that you have to respond.

Totally different subject too.

[guillaumeb]

47. I was simply surprised, perhaps shocked,

that you did not work Islam or Muslims into this post also.

[MariaThinks]

48. No that's what you do. I talk about reducing the violence that i'm seeing.

Islam seems to be your obsession. In fact, you mentioned it first in this completely unrelated thread. Very telling.

You tell others what to talk about and what to notice.

You should put me on ignore since you have no interest in enlightened conversation, and I find these dialogues to be a complete waste of my time.

[dchill]

8. The bubble keeps getting bigger...

Until it pops.

[apcalc]

51. She is NOT being investigated.

The FBI has said as much. Look it up.
Republican fantasy.

[Jester Messiah]

3. It's cool guys, call off the investigation.

Some rando on the Internet says it was all fine. Let's pack it up and head home.

[TheBlackAdder]

36. The email issue seems to be a speed bump, the Clinton Foundation is what looks to have teeth.

[Live and Learn]

4. The real issues are WAR, Oligarchy and Environmental Catastrophe, at least for me.

All three are sure to happen if Hillary is elected. I have no idea what Trump would do at all but I doubt it will be pleasant either and it is sure to make us a laughing stock by the rest of the world.

[MariaThinks]

7. From your phrasing, you know what Hillary will do but are not sure about Trump?

and you think none of those things will happen under Bernie?

[Live and Learn]

9. You got it. nt

[MariaThinks]

11. and you're basing this on which actual decisions Bernie has made?

Heck, he's having problems with voting polls and volunteers in yesterdays' voting.

[Live and Learn]

15. Bernie has run an excellent, almost miraculous, campaign and you know it.

If he'd of had more time he'd be seeping this primary. People recognize that the 3rd way is not at all for the people. Someday you will realize it too but it will probably be too late.

[Lord Magus]

18. Ridiculous. He had plenty of time, he just didn't appeal to enough voters to win. -nt-

[Live and Learn]

21. Really? Clinton has been running for decades. Bernie only a few months before the first primaries.

How is that enough time? You know damn well that more people support Bernie's ideas than Clintons. I predict you will rue the day you selected her in the future.

[MariaThinks]

27. Yes, Hillary has been working hard for decade, Bernie only a few months

I'm not sure what your timelines have to do with this. Sounds like you should support Hillary because she has devoted so much to this effort, while it seems like an afterthought for Bernie.

[Live and Learn]

31. What crap. Bernie has been working for progressive values his entire life.

First lady doesn't really count.

[MariaThinks]

32. that's a pretty rotten thing to say about First lady.

[Live and Learn]

35. I don't think so. They are not elected. nt

[scscholar]

28. So much anger and violence is excellent?

We should seek to do better than that!

[Live and Learn]

33. You should do better than posting lies. nt

[Lord Magus]

17. You've made it very clear that you don't live in reality.

[anotherproletariat]

5. The biggest clue that there was no intentional wrongdoing is that, as Sanders supporters constantly

declare...she's known she was going to run for president since she lost in 2008. Knowing how highly scrutinized everything she does will be, she would never have set up something to give her opponents fodder for more attacks. She simply wasn't aware that any of this (the emails, the server) were problems. She had people who set up and handled all of the technical logistics, and she was focused on the job of SoS.

[MariaThinks]

13. Exactly. But it's too logical. Or she gets paid so much for speeches - why would she care about

doing anything else if it was about getting richer.

[anotherproletariat]

49. Not to mention that the money made from speeches all went to charity. nt

[2cannan]

53. That's not true.

Liberal group claims all of Hillary Clinton's speaking fees went to charity
http://www.politifact.com/punditfact/statements/2015/jun/16/occupy-democrats/liberal-group-claims-all-hillary-clintons-speaking/

Our ruling

Occupy Democrats claimed Clinton "has donated every cent she's ever earned from speaking fees to charity."

That’s a misreading of Clinton’s comments in 2014, when she said speaking fees at colleges and universities were donated to the Clinton Foundation.

Clinton’s financial disclosure form includes 51 speeches in which Clinton was compensated directly.

This claim rates False.

[Happyhippychick]

10. If it's a problem then why hasn't she been indicted yet?

[Demsrule86]

12. It seems to me having a private server that was not compromised

is way more responsible than using Google like Powell did...and given the archaic nature of State's email, I sure don't blame her. Bernies supporters have posted the worst of the right wing hate articles on this issue. It didn't help Bernie.

[MariaThinks]

14. 100% true.

[Demsrule86]

24. I don't blame her at all. nt

[Lord Magus]

20. We KNOW that State's email got hacked repeatedly by foreign powers.

Yet it was a security risk for Hillary to use a private server that it's rumored might have been hacked? According to Republicans that makes sense, and it's sad to see progressives pretend it makes sense just because they want to attack Hillary.

[Demsrule86]

23. True

But not as bad as states since no one has shown it was hacked.

[TheCowsCameHome]

16. Great slogan on a "HRC for President" billboard

Thanks for suggesting it.

[k8conant]

19. An interesting twist on the facts and then this:

Hillary has been in some sort of public office most of her life now.

Source? All I know of are U.S. Senate 2001-2009 and Secretary of State 2009-2013

[MariaThinks]

29. seriously? This is how silly the discussion is? First Lady 8 years. First lady Arkansas 12 years

let's at least elevate the conversation on the left.

[mac56]

38. Wow. What elections did she win to be first lady?

[k8conant]

40. We were talking about government officials...

my husband wasn't a government official because I worked for IRS for 17 years.

[sadoldgirl]

22. Seems to me that the FBI is spending an awful amount

of time on tho "non issue".
And why is Obama blocking the release of her
e-mails regarding the TTP until after the election?

[reddread]

25. security review

[magical thyme]

26. a member for a whole 6 months

Let me guess --broccoli your fave veggie?

[MariaThinks]

30. what does broccoli mean?

[Vinca]

34. It's not an issue NOW.

Unless you're an FBI agent involved in this investigation and speaking out of turn, you have no idea what will happen to this case.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

37. The email thing is not the reason I'm not voting for Hillary.

It's her much vaunted, politically expedient, "foreign policy experience" which exceeds my nose holding limits. Not to mention her lack of scruples, ruthlessness, and ambiguous (to put it kindly) morality.

[MariaThinks]

42. You only prove my point. Instead of just not voting for her, people make stuff up.

She is none of the things you believe. But I don't care. Hopefully there will be enough people smart enough to protect people who have a warped sense of Hillary.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

44. I agreed with you. The email thing is not an issue for me.

Your judgement and mine differ on her character. And, if she is your preferred candidate you should vote for her. Just as I will vote for my preferred candidate.

[MariaThinks]

46. I kind of agreed with you as well.

[bbgrunt]

39. Sorry to tell you that even if

She is not formally indicted, her email issue remains a problem of honor and character.

[mac56]

41. An indictment would probably be preferable

to having this hang over her head for years.

[MariaThinks]

43. Only to those who make stuff up.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

50. The perception of wrongdoing is often as damaging is the reality of wrongdoing.

What the public sees is "scandal", "investigation", "possible indictment", "cover up", and "Clinton denies".

To think there will be no impact is akin to singing "Happy Days Are Here Again" when ones head is buried in the sand..

[AzDar]

45. This is just embarrassing... even for a Hillary supporter.

[gordianot]

52. Thank you so much for assuring my rest.

The brilliance of your logic for Dear Leader Hillary makes me proud to be an American. I do fear for my rest that will be so assured I may have trouble waking up. Please note there is no need for me to go to re-education camp I have seen the error of my ways and never again will I defame the name of our Fatherly Leader William Clinton or the Celestial Mother. Send more of the blue and white pills. Your faithful servant.

[larkrake]

54. unless they are about the foundation or pay-to-play, dealings with foreign leaders, ect

classified, no, but I dont think they are looking at that. I think they uncovered some illegal leads, or even traitorous leaning be it true or not, you see, emails cannot be totally erased unless you destroy the drive itself.
