gets paid a lot of money to give speeches based on her remarkable life experience, expertise, and popularity.

And?

She's obviously in the tank for CAMPERS everywhere! She cannot make me sleep in a damn tent no way.

The camping oligarchy is clearly poised to take over the US.

Enjoy your stay!

Even if its 4 years late

when they seem to rack up posts quickly.

I see the future democratic nominee criticized unjustly on a forum thats supposedly full of democrats.

Enjoy your stay!

Under another name.

I appreciate the welcome though. It's been an ugly primary season. Should be pretty much over by next Tuesday though. I look forward to reasoned discourse prevailing once again!

A true-blue Democrat, with progressive ideals and pragmatic plans for implementing them. She is basically my ideal candidate. Can't wait to see her sworn in as Madame President!

If you want to understand Hillary's very progressive positions, I suggest you check out her website.

The difference between you and me is that I believe that she will implement as much of her platform as she is able to, while you don't. It comes down, as almost everything in politics does, to character. You think she's an evil liar, I think she's great. If you judge the two candidates issue by issue, there's almost no difference between them. I don't like angry, shouty Bernie. You don't like Hillary. Hence, we each have a vote.

But then, I suppose it's a difficult day for you. My thoughts are with you at this trying time.

when has either major party nominated a candidate that was under criminal investigation?

never thats when

and there is a reason for that...wether she is indicted or not, she is tainted

#releasethetranscripts so we can hear her words of 'wisdom'

Can't have that! Let's dissolve all businesses and go back to bartering with leaves!

Seriously, sorry for the sarcasm, but it really is ok to be pro-business AND a Democrat. Most of us work for businesses.

You should watch it; she doesn't talk about business. She talks about camping, about how it's great for kids, and how glad she is that kids can have these wonderful, enriching experiences.

About Us
Beth El is a warm, open and caring Conservative Jewish community in St. Louis Park, Minnesota. The synagogue reaches out to its 1,250 households, offering educational, spiritual and social opportunities that nourish the intellect, soul and body. In so doing, familial bonds have been formed between members that stretch “from generation to generation.”

I would especially like to know what exactly she said to this 'conservative' group about Israel and their disproportionate responses.

There's nothing sinister there. She's openly pro-Israel, AS IS the United States.

what exactly did she say to this group specifically?

Bet they have winnebagos and those fancy store bought marshmallow sticks!

almost 20 years, while Bill was Gov and POTUS. How dare she join a speakers circuit after leaving government service!

How dare she be so in-demand? What a pushy broad, being so popular!

about how evil these speeches were in all these years...suddenly they are the end of the world.

Somehow. With Bernie math.

outraged about, so I take it all with a grain of salt.

Holy shit.

Okay, there, citizen..

The Massachusetts Conference for Women? The American Camping Association? Beth El Synagogue? You think the Camping Association is looking to curry political favour?

Seriously, take a look around. 2.5 million more people have voted for Hillary than for your candidate, because they LIKE her. She's famous, she's brilliant, she's accomplished, and she's one of the most qualified candidates for president we have EVER had. I'm proud to cast my vote for her!

I'm still wondering why all the connections to the money in your post don't have a damned thing to do with the majority of people who would vote for her. What does any of that have to do electorates?

Have you been distracted by the current oligarchic model? Sorry, but I'm still thinking we have a chance of returning to a democracy.

the American Camping Association or the Innovation Arts and Entertainment or the National Council for Behavioral Healthcare of the Vancouver Board of Trade (nefarious Canadians that they are) or the US Green Building Council or the Massachusetts Conference for Women.

Why is that?

I assume she didn't write a new speech for each of these gigs. Some of them are back to back to back. Some even on the same day. Probably just variations on a theme.

You know the answer, cause Bernie wants to make it look like she was taking money from Wall Street in particular.

Wonder why?

...people worked hard at poverty wages to earn the money for those payments.

Highly recommend everyone watch it.

How dare she! Pushy lady!

up system that she and almost ALL other politicians are part of, then you will be getting somewhere.

Rauner’s GTCR is linked to nursing home deaths and abuse. And one subsidiary company of GTCR defrauded medicaid and the Department of Veterans Affairs. (I didn't have time to go through all the companies.)

Hillary Clinton Got $280,000 for One Speech to Bruce Rauner’s Former Firm

By Carol Felsenthal - PUBLISHED FEB. 10, 2016, AT 3:14 P.M.

On June 28, 2014, Hillary Clinton, gone more than a year from her job as Obama’s secretary of state and obviously preparing to move back to the White House, traveled to her hometown of Chicago to deliver a speech to GTCR. That’s GTCR, the private equity firm that Bruce Rauner once headed—the “R” stands for Rauner—and that earned him the millions he would use in his successful run for governor.

For that one speech, Hillary was paid $280,000—almost six times the median income for American households.

This wasn’t her only big-money appearance in Chicago. According to her “Executive Branch Personnel Public Financial Disclosure Report,” covering January 2014 through May 2015, she also spoke to the United Fresh Produce Association ($225,000) and the Advanced Medical Technology Association ($265,000).

Rauner had left GTCR in 2012. I was curious whether he had attended the speech, but email to Rauner’s press secretary was not answered, nor were calls and email seeking further details from GTCR and from Don Walker, president of Hillary’s lecture agency.

If only we knew what she said to those GTCR executives and their clients and investors. For example, did she mention the ugly gubernatorial race that at that moment was pitting Rauner against incumbent Democrat Pat Quinn, for whom Hillary would later campaign in Chicago?...

Some background on GTCR for those unfamiliar with GOP Governor Bruce Rauner's former company which is a multi billion dollar healthcare conglomerate that includes a wide variety of companies in the health care industry including but certainly not limited to nursing homes, hospital debt collection,and pharmaceutical companies:



According to NPR GTCR paid Hillary Clinton $780,000 in total to speak to them a few times:




One of the companies under the GTCR corporate umbrella has been convicted for defrauding Medicaid & The Department of Veterans Affairs:

classist DINO who will drive our country into the ground to try and pay back her sponsors. There's a less verbose phrase for that that used to be bandied about here prior to the Tumblr brigade decrying it as "sexist"...
