So she's either to big of a liar to be president or to stupid to be president.....it's one or the other.

Then why not issue her a secure blackberry? From what we know right now the emails on her sever were safer than the ones on state.gov

"I used to read her emails for hours and then garden".
I'd be reading the emails and day trading.

As the article points out, that is called crony capitalism. Something Hillary is so much against, and which she promises to clean up. And what's even more smelly is the money Corning donated to Hilary and to her foundation. Not illegal. But . . . remember, Spence . . . the smell test. Your beloved smell test. Do you detect a stink there, Spence?

Not based on that information alone. It's no secret that as NY Senator Clinton developed a good relationship with Corning which actually was part of her job. If it's crony capitalism or not would really depend on the dynamics of the relationship.
If Clinton's back is scratched for helping Corning with funding or a trade issue that's beneficial for the US economy or workers, that's not the same thing as routing tax dollars for weapons the DoD doesn't want or a bridge to nowhere...
It's also wrong to assume that just because money is changing there's an under the table deal in play. Often the business interest who's working the hardest to educate the legislator will shape their opinion and certainly gain influence.
I'd note that as Sec State she helped other big US businesses beyond Corning.

Oh, really? It's a Senator's job to develop relationships with individual businesses in their State? Did she touch base with all the mom and pop stores in NY? Or all the other businesses? Did she develop better "relationships" with businesses which didn't contribute money to her?
If it's crony capitalism or not would really depend on the dynamics of the relationship.
It's crony CAPITALISM. It's about capital, about money. Giving money for influence and favors and advantage over competitors. Getting money to pay for acquisition of power. Returning favors, influence, and privilege in order to maintain power. You know . . . the everyday politics which drives our oligarchic system of "relationships" between BIG business and BIG government. That's the type of "dynamic" that voters, with at least a marginal awareness of how we are ruled, are angry about. And Hillary is good at preaching what she will do for the little guy while she gets her back scratched by the big guys.
If Clinton's back is scratched for helping Corning with funding or a trade issue that's beneficial for the US economy Corning which was a big contributor to HIllary's political campaigns and her foundation or its workers, that's not the same thing as routing tax dollars for weapons the DoD doesn't want or a bridge to nowhere... No, not the"same" kind of cronyism, just one of the different kinds.
It's also wrong to assume that just because money is changing there's an under the table deal in play.
And it's wrong to assume that there isn't.
Often the business interest who's working the hardest by paying the most to educate the legislator will shape their opinion and certainly gain influence.
Yup, gaining influence. That's one of the purposes of crony capitalism.
I'd note that as Sec State she helped other big US businesses beyond Corning.

I'd note that our political oligarchs need to "help" more than one "big" business. The more they "help," the more they can entrench their power.

Seems like this is one that slipped through the cracks. Doesn't appear to be mal intent, nobody was hurt that we know of, what's the problem again?

The problem is your candidate is a poor decision maker. This is really not up for debate, it just happens to be highlighted due to the fact she is running for president. Other than that Mrs Lincoln,did you enjoy the play?

Considering her lengthy and impressive resume, to call out an issue over email hosting as a definitive measure is pretty insignificant and trite.

Jeff, you are on the Hillary bandwagon regardless of the shortcomings. You have zero credibility when it comes to evaluating her accomplishments. Picture Slip as a line judge for a Pats game and you may understand my point more clearly. I am guessing Hillary could eat your young and you would grant her a pardon.

With that criteria you'd invalidate anyone from running for POTUS.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

No. The secure emails on the state secure system were far more secure than on sec.state.bathroom

We know that state.gov was hacked. No evidence her private server was to date...

Pretty hard to determine if a system was hacked when there is nothing in place to monitor for it.
Part of the safeguards in place on the government systems is the actual ability to determine that something has happened.
Little things like IDS, Baselining, and log collection and review are a couple that were lacking in her case.

You are Hillarys lackey Jeff. Apologist,need I go on. I honestly think you would hand wash her underpants. You can not evaluate her with clarity and you have proven that countless times.
