e-mail

Prompt: Discuss why you were interested in picking up this article.

           Here is a link to the article about Clinton's email  . I had heard about what had happen, and let me sum it up. What happened was is that when Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State, which was from 2009-2012. During this time she had been using a non government email. This means that anyone who wanted to see her emails couldn't as easily. She had said that it would have been too much work to have two phones. What is stating in the article is how this may ruin her chase for 2016, and how she it is going to effect her negatively.

           This first of all, isn't illegal like most people say it is. Under the guidelines, there is not specific penalty for using the private email. Also, Secretary of State's before Hillary also held a private email. Which shows the hypocrisy in the opposition who say this is a terrible thing. Even though they did not criticize previous Secretary of State's who did this before Hillary ever stepped foot in office.

         I think that this is a very minor thing that Hillary Clinton had done. This is just early Presidential politics talking. People who want to find, or create dirt on Hillary Clinton before she starts her campaign in 2016. This shows how weak the opposition is to Hillary. The best thing they could find was the fact she didn't use the government email she was given. It shouldn't be that big of a deal to people. If this is the strongest case against Hillary, then she is very likely will go on to do great in the Primaries. If she is lucky, she may do well too, in the General Election.
