Clinton Bristles at Question on E-mail Indictment: ‘It’s Not Going to Happen’
National Review ^ | 3/10/2016 | Brendan Bordelon

Hillary Clinton bristled at a question over the possibility of her indictment during Wednesday night’s Democratic debate, refusing to say whether she’d drop out of the race should the FBI charge her with mishandling classified material and dismissing larger concerns over her improper use of official e-mail.

Though a large portion of Wednesday night’s Univision debate in Miami was taken up by the question of immigration, Univision host Jorge Ramos unexpectedly led the evening with a series of pointed queries on Clinton’s use of a private e-mail server while she was secretary of state.

“That goes against a memo that you personally sent to your employees in 2011, directing all of them to use official e-mail precisely because of security concerns,” said Ramos. “So it seems that you issued one set of rules for yourself, and a different set of rules for the rest of the department. Who specifically gave you permission to operate your e-mail system as you did? Was it President Barack Obama? And would you drop out of the race if you get indicted?”

How about all the digging he did on the birth certificate issue? Still doable?

How ever, if the normal path is vacated, Hillary might not wake up one morning and her quest will be for nought

Wow... a REAL question from Ramos...

And one I have been asking since forever - WHO GAVE HER PERMISSION to use her own email server?? She has said repeatedly that she obtained "permission from state". Well, she RAN the state department- did she give herself permission? WHO? (Did she answer the question? or just deny she will be indicted?)

Obama no doubt is worried about what the Clintons have on him and will release if he indicts her. However he is also worried that Trump will ultimately prosecute his commissars in IRS, Justice and other agencies who executed the scandals and other crimes. If they cut deals and testify under oath about his involvement and have a bit of insurance evidence , it would be even worse for him. While it is not likely, he may try to cut a deal with Trump. No Hillary because she will be indicted and publicly arrested, but no prosecution of anyone in my Administration. Don’t count on Comey as an independent factor, Obama did not appoint him if he didn’t have something on him to ultimately control him.

Good point.

This is her standard operaing procedure:

Deny, Deny, Deny, Say it’s old news.

Then blame the vast right-wing conspiracy for bringing it up.

The beginning of the Trump administration will be the beginning of indictment proceedings, about both the emails and Benhazi. It won't happen with any of the others, as, across the political spectrum, a lot of pols will be guilty of things that come up.

Well maybe: "Stupid people, corrupt politicians"

We should keep our fingers crossed...and send him public messages now.

There is a story that HilLIARy went to England on an unannounced trip and was only there long enough to obtain some records from the departmen in England that controls birth certificates.

Kenya was under British control at the time Obama was born there.

HilLIARy had no benefit from exposing him right then and there, so she kept it in her files.

Obama would never SEND her on a mission of that sort. He would have sent his own thugs.

Methinks Mr. Ramos will be getting visits from various alphabet agencies very soon.

Marcy Park...avoid Marcy Mr. Ramos...


He was given the green light to pose the question...your next cue will be Joe Biden filling papers to enter the race.

Trump has already looked into the statute of limitations. It’s doable.


Trumps campaign should have a single message: A vote for me is a vote for prosecuting Hillary. He should win in a landslide.

The families of those who lost their lives as a result of leaks from Hillary’s home grown email server should file a massive lawsuit charging her with malfeasance and suing her for hundreds of millions of dollars.

Where is the independent investigation? She was SoS and you know that were she a Republican the drumbeat would be over whelming for one.

"To the best of my knowledge, January 20, 2017 will be well within any statute of limitation."

Giving aid and comfort to the enemy has no statute of limitations.
