(109,053 posts)if a particular email should be sent through that account or through her personal account. No one is looking over John Kerry's shoulder right now to make sure he's sending emails through the correct accounts.
So the only difference is whether she made the choice of personal vs. private BEFORE hitting the send button, or afterwards. Kerry is making the decision before he sends an email. She sorted through the emails after she sent them. But in each case they are the only ones who decided which was which.
And both of them are making their choices openly. Anyone who got an email from her could see it was from a personal account, and could have forwarded it to anyone else. Emails have virtually no privacy.
But I agree with you that I wish this had never happened!
