attendees get in and.....nothing else. Apparently the powers that be will keep those lowest on the totem pole far from the main attraction. In order to even get a "preferred" view of Hillary, an attendee has to pony up another $700.00. Two grand more before Hillary will pose for a photo.

I find the whole concept of segregation by the size of one's wallet very distateful. Even if I had it, I'd never pay $2700 for a photo with anybody.
