Hillary Clinton Isn't Ready to Disclose Who's Funding Her Campaign

On the campaign trail, Hillary Clinton has been pushing hard to overhaul of the country's broken campaign finance system. "We need to fix our dysfunctional political system and get unaccounted money out of it, once and for all, even if that takes a constitutional amendment," Clinton said during one of her first official speeches in Iowa last month.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for influence from all the corners of the earth.
If it weren't for all the $$$ the Clinton's have she would be long gone from the race by now.

My guess is that the un reported cash they have probably fills a warehouse somewhere. Pure speculation on my part but, look at the nature of these beasts.
