Well the one about bernie’s medical records is a killer.

It directly suggests that Hillary’s is not for public consumption.

That email alone should be enough.

yep love this line: Beyond this Hillary should stop attacking Bernie, especially when she says things that are untrue, which candidly she often does.

There is one describing in detail new regs to cut carbon that can be done WITHOUT CONGRESS. In it they mention Hillary and Jeb in the same sentence as possibilities to carry this agenda.

I just heard on Fox business that one of the emails talks about who is coming into America and who would succeed. Basically, Jews and European. Not Blacks or Mediterranean (Romana). If anyone finds it, would make a good post. I’m also searching the emails.

The attack on Coal and increased regulations are our future if Clinton gets elected and this should show people what they are in for. Go Trump!

I wondered who is Laura Graham that is referenced as being suicidal in the link you posted. Verrry Interesting, see more info here, http://wagner.edu/wagnermagazine/behind-the-scenes-with-laura-graham-95/

Excerpt here, “These days, Graham is on a first-name basis not only with Bill Clinton, but with many world leaders. When the prime minister of Haiti comes into her office at the Clinton Foundation, he greets her with kisses on both cheeks. During her years as a White House staffer, she traveled to well over 50 countries and witnessed world-shaping events in person. Clinton’s chief of staff since 2005, she’s a figure you may have seen hovering at his elbow in television footage of his visits to disaster sites such as New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, or Haiti after the January earthquake. She manages his schedule and his staff, keeps him focused and informed as he travels from event to event, and is chief of operations of his foundation, an organization of 1,400 employees in more than 40 countries around the world. Besides helping to build that organization from the ground up, she was intimately involved in the international aid effort following the 2004 Southeast Asian tsunami, served as co-chair of the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund, and now is a key figure in the rebuilding of Haiti.

In the words of Jeff Kraus, a Wagner political science professor who was one of Graham’s first mentors, “She’s the one in the background, making things happen while others are taking pictures.”

The Road to Politics

Laura Graham is not an effusive person. Unlike her famously charismatic boss, she does not have to shake hands with everyone in the room, and her smiles are rare and brief.

It’s a contrast Graham readily acknowledges. “I work for one of the most eloquent speakers of his generation, so it’s a hard act to live up to,” she said in a talk at Wagner last November. “Whenever I tell him I am going to make a speech, his one request is that I not embarrass him.” It’s a great line, but she barely stops for the laugh, keeping her chin tucked down and reading her speech at the speed of an auctioneer.

Graham was born and raised on Staten Island, to parents she describes as hard-working, blue-collar folks. Her father, Claude Graham, who passed away in 2007, often held down several jobs to make ends meet. Her family never owned their own home, never traveled. “Shopping trips to New Jersey were considered journeys that required weeks of planning,” recalls the woman who made a career of presidential travel scheduling.

It was an inauspicious beginning for someone on her career track, she admits. But she was a hard worker and a high achiever. After graduating from Susan E. Wagner High School, Graham attended Wagner College, commuting from home, her tuition paid for by academic and athletic scholarships. (She played softball, first and third base.)

Politics was a new interest for Graham in college. As Graham tells it, her family was politically disengaged until Bill Clinton entered the national political scene during the 1992 presidential campaign. His focus on working-class concerns caught Claude Graham’s eye; and his daughter, who wanted to go to law school and become a prosecutor, took notice as well, even attending a Clinton rally at the Meadowlands just before the November 1992 election.

Graham became increasingly interested and involved in politics, declaring a major in political science, joining the political science club, and helping to start a chapter of the College Democrats on campus in the fall of 1993.

She was looking for an internship with the state government in Albany when fate intervened to send her to D.C. instead. In March 1994, the Wagner College Democrats were invited to help with a presidential visit to New York City, and Graham ended up driving the NBC news crew in the presidential motorcade. They suggested that she pursue a White House internship, and even introduced her to the White House press assistant. “I smiled politely, took his business card, never intending to follow up,” she recalls. “I remember my father telling me that I had little chance because it was probably only for kids who knew someone important in Washington.”

She gives Professor Kraus much of the credit for what happened next. He was not going to let this self-effacing yet brilliant student miss this opportunity. “She was very bright but also very quiet,” he says. “If you knew her, you knew she had great potential. That’s why I encouraged her to apply for the internship.” At his urging, she applied; and when her first application was rejected, he kept on her to apply again. From August to December 1994, she interned in the White House’s scheduling office.”

“So I think you’re right to have gone to the places that you visited because there’s a discussion going on now across the region to try to see where there might be common ground to deal with the threat posed by extremism, and particularly with Syria, which has everyone quite worried, Jordan because it’s on their border and they have hundreds of thousands of refugees and they can’t possibly vet all those refugees,” Clinton said before the Jewish United Fund Of Metropolitan Chicago during an October 2013 lunch.

She added, “So they don’t know if, you know, jihadists are coming in along with legitimate refugees. Turkey for the same reason.”
