The FBI is recommending no charges be filed against Hillary
Clinton for maintaining a private email server, clearing the way for her become
the first woman presidential nominee of the Democrat party.
FBI Director James B. Comey said Clinton had very careless,
which could be said of most Americans who have had to learn now to use one new
electronic practice after another.
No one is arguing that her private email server was hacked
by unfriendly powers, although some government servers have. Comey said no
evidence of misconduct was found in the handling of classified mails.
And previous secretary of states, including Colin Powell,
had his own email.
Many in private industry believe it would be safer to control their own email,
rather than risk attacks by China, Russia and other.
The Republicans will resume their attack on Clinton although
it goes against their own basic philosophy that private industry can do a job
better than the government.
President Obama’s attempt to set up a health care website
was a fiasco.
After several terrorist attacks in the U.S. the government
tried to force Apple to reveal the inner workings of an iPhone used by a
terrorist. Apple refused, but another private company was able to do the job.
The Clinton campaign said it was pleased with the decision
made by "career officials" at the FBI.
"As the Secretary has long said, it was a mistake to
use her personal email and she would not do it again," said Clinton
spokesman Brian Fallon. "We are glad that this matter is now
resolved."
Republican nominee Donald Trump condemned the recommendation
as expected. Yet the GOP now has lost both its marquee playing cards, Benghazi
and the emails
The real loser may be Bernie Sanders if he held any hopes
that Clinton would be indicted and he would get the nomination by default, even
though she had several million more votes than his campaign.
