HRC has a cozy relationship with What's Her Name that is at the head of this, so, eh...just another Head Of Something, flexing their connections.

Given the chance I'm sure we will hear and see more Power and Control Banksters types waving at HRC yelling, Don't Forget About Me!

I'll side with the candidate that doesn't want $250,000 to give a speech.
