18. do NOT donate with a codicil

You said:
"She sure hasn't given up all the money from her campaign contributions."

My advice to you is to never donate money with a codicil saying, "Return if you don't do as I expect." It's not really a donation, then, doncha see.

I never expected Hillary Clinton to return money to me, nor have I expected other candidates to do so, any more than I would expect that from a charitable organization or a homeless person on the street. I expected Hillary Clinton to use my donation as she (or more correctly her team) saw fit.

I'd donate to her again and I'd vote for her again, just as many times as she's willing to wade through the shit to get the job.

And, just in case you missed my admittedly obscure reference before, when I said "you should duck now"...
