Ralph Nader: Clinton Foundation’s Actions Should Result in Indictment
Fox Business ^

Posted on 09/12/2016 11:12:49 AM PDT by Impala64ssa

Four-time presidential candidate Ralph Nader called Hillary Clinton’s pay-for-play involvement with the Clinton Foundation a “lethal quadrangle.”

“It’s the content of the emails not so much the classification, non-classification and it’s the lethal quadrangle – Hillary Clinton in the State Department, Clinton Foundation, Bill Clinton making $10,000 a minute or whatever with his speeches and corporate mining magnets and other big corporations wanting favors,” Nader said during an interview on FOX Business Network’s After the Closing Bell.

The “Breaking Through Power” author said some of the business interests involving national security, like Uranium deal involving one-fifth of all U.S. strategic uranium reserves, casts serious suspicions as it confirms special favors may have been provided as leverage through the Clinton Foundation and Bill Clinton’s speeches.

“They want favors from the State Department. They used Bill Clinton, they give him huge speech fees and then they turn around and make big contributions to the Clinton Foundation. It’s very unsavory and there’s going to be more emails coming out to illustrate that,” Nader said.

Nader said he hasn’t discovered anything illegal within Clinton Foundation documents, but he finds the foundation’s actions unethical and said they should be considered for indictment.

Video at link (BTW, anyone know what is "a leppo?" Gary Johnson doesn't have a clue) Ralph Nader is at times, to be polite, a bit eccentric, but gotta give him credit here, when he's right, HE'S RIGHT.

Ralph Nader is an eccentric, to be sure. But when talking politics, he usually tries to be fair and honest, in his own eccentric way.

Ralphs meds need to be adjusted.

He might need a boost in his IV potassium drip.

Nader like Sanders is an obvious leftist, but I find both of them to be fairly grounded ethically.

The Clintons have chartered a pathway to great wealth, solely based on connections between government and their ability to broker favors.

Nader and Sanders find that unethical, and so do most on the left, right and center.

What is a corporate mining “magnet”? Did he mean “magnate”?

As a principal in the Clinton Foundation, Hillary has authority to define what is “charitable activity” for the Foundation - and since it is the Clinton Foundation, any actual charitable work the Foundation did would redound to the credit of Hillary Clinton.

Consequently, any contribution to the Clinton Foundation by any foreign government, according to the Constitution

Article 1 Section 9:
No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States: and no person holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state
requires prior authorization by the House and Senate. There were many contributions to the Foundation by foreign governments while Hillary was Secretary of State. None, AFAIK, was ever authorized by the House of Representatives.

Hillary violated the Constitution, whether or not it was a legitimate charity. Not that that is likely.

Or Ralph hates Clinton for stealing the nomination from Sanders and this is his way of getting back.
