(8,352 posts)1. Well this explains the attacks on Sanders'
supposed FEC violations which have been resolved.
Of course she knew she was running. She has been running since 2000 when she and Bill left the White House.
What a fucking liar she is. And many wonder why we just don't trust her.

(1,166 posts)3. Quite an interesting article. Beyond the possible FEC campaign law violation,
it's kind of amazing that the American Camping Association paid over $200,000 for access (and why would they want access if she wasn't running for President?). The pity is that the government seems quite interested in protecting her no matter what the infraction. Well, we'll see... maybe I'm wrong and she's in for it.

Why would anyone expect the government to not protect candidates representing established power structure?
