Hillary Clinton has claimed that her emails, sent over unsecured methods, did not contain classified materials.  But that is not consistent with a review of some of them from Reuters:

August 21, 2015

In the small fraction of emails made public so far, Reuters has found at least 30 email threads from 2009, representing scores of individual emails, that include what the State Department’s own “Classified” stamps now identify as so-called ‘foreign government information.’ The U.S. government defines this as any information, written or spoken, provided in confidence to U.S. officials by their foreign counterparts.

This sort of information, which the department says Clinton both sent and received in her emails, is the only kind that must be “presumed” classified, in part to protect national security and the integrity of diplomatic interactions, according to U.S. regulations examined by Reuters.

“It’s born classified,” said J. William Leonard, a former director of the U.S. government’s Information Security Oversight Office (ISOO). Leonard was director of ISOO, part of the White House’s National Archives and Records Administration, from 2002 until 2008, and worked for both the Bill Clinton and George W. Bush administrations.

“If a foreign minister just told the secretary of state something in confidence, by U.S. rules that is classified at the moment it’s in U.S. channels and U.S. possession,” he said in a telephone interview, adding that for the State Department to say otherwise was “blowing smoke.”

Reuters’ findings may add to questions that Clinton has been facing over her adherence to rules concerning sensitive government information. Spokesmen for Clinton declined to answer questions, but Clinton and her staff maintain she did not mishandle any information.

“I did not send classified material, and I did not receive any material that was marked or designated classified,” Clinton told reporters at a campaign event in Nevada on Tuesday.

Although it appears to be true for Clinton to say none of her emails included classification markings, a point she and her staff have emphasized, the government’s standard nondisclosure agreement warns people authorized to handle classified information that it may not be marked that way and that it may come in oral form.  http://www.aol.com/article/2015/08/21/exclusive-dozens-of-clinton-emails-were-classified-from-the-sta/21225607/?icid=maing-grid7%7Chtmlws-main-bb%7Cdl5%7Csec1_lnk2%26pLid%3D988332535

Since early March 2015, I have referred to this matter as ’email-gate’ (see Hillary Clinton’s email-gate). Other sources also have called it that.  I also discussed email-gate in my book Hillary Clinton, Prophecy, and the Destruction of the United States (pp. 33-34).

The other point to make is that Hillary Clinton has LONG HAD INTEGRITY PROBLEMS.  Here is something from my Hillary Clinton, Prophecy, and the Destruction of the United States book about that :

Irrespective of her responsibility related to Benghazi, she does have some integrity problems.

Of course, other U.S.A. leaders have had integrity problems. For example, the first U.S. President George Bush broke his promise, “Read my lips, no new taxes.” Bill Clinton lied about his affair with Monica Lewinski.  Barack Obama broke his promise, “if you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan” (Gore D. ^{Fact check: If you like your health plan, you can keep it 2-year deal. USA Today, November 1l, 2013} No one should bear false witness.

Her boss when she worked on Watergate, Bernard Nussbaum, said Hillary was prone to temper tantrums (and that she insisted back in the 1970s that Bill Clinton would become President) (Baker P, Chozick A. Hillary Clinton’s History as First Lady: Powerful, but Not Always Deft. New York Times, December 5, 2014). It is alleged that Hillary produced false documents in that job and was fired from it because of integrity issues (Fader C. Fact Check: Was Hillary Clinton fired from Watergate investigation? Florida Times Union, March 8, 2014). (pp. 32-33)

I have felt since the story first broke that email-gate had the potential to cause her to lose the election and possibly the nomination. However, as most of her supporters do not seem to care, she could possibly win anyway as HILLARY CLINTON HAS LONG HAD SERIOUS INTEGRITY ISSUES. Email-gate is just one more example of legally questionable actions on her part–and I believe that it demonstrates she does have integrity problems.

The fact that more in the mainstream media are acting like this could be a problem for her, indicates that they may also think that this could derail Hillary Clinton’s path for the Democratic nomination for president.

While Hillary Clinton seems to be a hard worker, various statements from her prove that she does NOT accept many aspects of biblical morality (i.e. homosexuality and abortion) and also has problems with personal integrity.

This does NOT mean that all of her political opponents are necessarily worse, but she has a long history of problems.

The USA needs the return of Jesus Christ and the Kingdom of God, whether or not Hillary Clinton is overly tainted by her handling of State Department emails.
