17. In the old days it was called a 'slush fund'.

It is corrupt and sleazy.

The Clinton Foundation is a political scandal that will at the least be a water torture eroding the Clinton candidacy, or it could explode.

I'm sorry about this, I worked hard for Bill Clinton in two presidential campaigns; but this wallowing in the pool of millionaires, billionaires and elitists is just too much for me. The Clinton family fell in love with mega-money and mega-influence peddling and Hillary Clinton is disqualified as far as I am concerned from being a Democratic party nominee for President.
