Is Hillary an unstoppable political force and inevitable first female president or scandal-ridden wannabe with a ton of baggage? Here are a few reasons to lean toward the latter.
1. Hillarys involvement in scandals started early.
As a 27-year-old staffer, she was fired from the Watergate committee for fraud and unethical behavior.
Her former boss, Jerry Zeifman, finally spoke out in 2008:
Because she was a liar, Zeifman said in an interview last week. She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.
So maybe the lying isnt so much a new thing.
2. Seriously, shes really into coverups.
Then, in 1993 the Clintons took the White House, and seven White House travel office employees were fired for mismanagement. The White House spokeswoman at the time, Dee Dee Myers, suggested that the employees were under FBI investigation. Some said it was all a show, because they wanted to get friends of the Clintons in office. Who knows.
There is substantial evidence that First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton lied under oath in denying that she played a role in the 1993 White House travel office firings, independent counsel Robert W. Ray reported Thursday.
The problem again was the cover up. They acted like they knew nothing, the truth never came out, and Hillary walked away.
3. She lied about being shot at by a Bosnian sniper.
Turns out that being a women in a high profile role isnt enough to make you a role model for women. Hillary is novel as the first woman to have a real shot at the Presidency, and that earns her points with a lot of the feminists who seem to overlook some of her most glaring issues.
If they are to be truly equal, women must fight their own fights and not rely on a borrowed spotlight.
Hillary has tried to have it both ways: to batten on her husbands nostalgic popularity while simultaneously claiming to be a victim of sexism.
Well, which is it? Are men convenient sugar daddies or condescending oppressors?
And for all of the fanfare, all of the opportunities her husband has handed her, what has she really done with her power? The truth is that, well, not much.
5. She hasnt actually done much with her power.
Her husband was elected to the presidency in 1992. Hillary, by all accounts, was incredibly influential in his administration. That much we know. Since then, shes been a senator from the state of New York. And then under Obama, she served as Secretary of State. What are her legacies?
Lets start with her tenure as First Lady of the United States. The most memorable moments from her eight years as First Lady boil down to Monica Lewinsky, Whitewater, and the defeat of Hillarycare. In 1994, her flagship effort to pass sweeping health care reform was a failure we had to wait until Barack Obama for that destruction.
Then she had nine years in the U.S. Senate as the first woman elected from New York. She followed Sen. Chuck Schumers lead on getting funding to rebuild after 9/11, and then supported Bushs military action in Afghanistan. She befriended Newt Gingrich to try to revive universal health care. She was re-elected easily in 2006, but by 2007 she was running for president and held the Democrat line. She served half of her second term before stepping down to accept her new position as Barack Obamas Secretary of State.
As Secretary of State she was undoubtedly hard working and competent, but is that enough to make her a remarkable Secretary of State? She visited 112 countries. There were no major gaffes or screw-ups (which in and of itself is a win for a Clinton). Her Russia Reset Button fell flat, and they still hate us. She gave a beautiful speech the night Osama bin Laden was killed. Overall, it was an unremarkable run that boils down to one horrible night in Libya, where she failed to answer the 3 a.m. phone call.
6. Benghazi.
On Sept. 11, 2012, Ambassador Chris Stevens and 3 other Americans were murdered by Islamic militants in Benghazi, Libya. Originally the attack was blamed on outrage due to an anti-Muslim YouTube video, and then-UN Ambassador Susan Rice made the rounds to all the Sunday shows to denounce the hate speech. For weeks, Hillary adamantly supported the ridiculous notion that these were spontaneous demonstrations, despite overwhelming evidence that she knew from the beginning that this was simply false.
More questions went unanswered. There were heated hearings, investigations, accusations, and cover-ups. The investigation still has not found out why requests for help were denied or who was responsible.
One thing, however, is clear. As CEO of the State Department, Hillary Clinton is ultimately responsible. Frustrated with the line of questioning during the hearing, Hillary exploded. The clip below shows how she feels about figuring out how the murders actually happened.
The truth is that Hillary has a long, checkered career, full of scandals and lies. Right now, shes all the Democrats have to succeed Barack Obama, but she may very well not be the unstoppable political machine that they make her out to be.
For the sake of America, lets hope that she isnt.
7. Lots and lots of dead bodies, here and around the globe.

Yep -- a now-forgotten video The Clinton Chronicles was especially good in tracking their crimes against persons. They're really no better than the Ceausescus, they're just not able to get away with as much -- yet.
Entering the clinton chronicles into jewtube's search bar returned "about 12,900 results."
The information's out there for those wanting to find it.

After years of holding herself above the law, telling lie after lie, and months of flat-out obstruction, HIllary Clinton has finally produced to the FBI her server and three thumb drives. Apparently, the server has been professionally wiped clean of any useable information, and the thumb drives contain only what she selectively culled. Myriad criminal offenses apply to this conduct.
Anyone with knowledge of government workings has known from inception that Hillarys communications necessarily would contain classified and national security related information. Thanks to the Inspector General for the Intelligence Community, it is now beyond dispute that she had ultra-Top Secret information and more that should never have left the State Department.
Equal to Ms. Clintons outrageous misconduct is that of the entire federal law enforcement community. It has long chosen to be deliberately blind to these flagrant infractions of laws designed to protect national securitylaws for which other people, even reporters, have endured atrocious investigations, prosecutions, and some served years in prison for comparatively minor infractions.
During the same years that Hillary was communicating about national security and world affairs off the grid, the Department of Justice has had no qualms threatening news reporters and prosecuting whistleblowers under the Espionage Act.
Its high time for a special prosecutor to be named to conduct a full investigation into Ms. Clintons likely commission of multiple felonies, including a conspiracy with Huma Abedin, Cheryl Mills, and possibly others, to violate multiple laws.
While the FBI and Department of Justice have willfully ignored Hillary Clintons outrageous conduct, they didnt hesitate a minute to investigate and prosecute former CIA Director and national hero, General Petraeus. He was just tarred, feathered and ridden out of the CIA on a rail for sharing some information (his own notebook) with his biographer who was both in the military and had a top secret clearance. Yet, Petraeus did not have a secret server set up to house his classified and top secret information or digital satellite imagery; he destroyed nothing; and, there was no leak. But thats not all.
During the same years that Hillary was communicating about national security and world affairs off the grid, the Department of Justice has had no qualms threatening news reporters and prosecuting whistleblowers under the Espionage Act. To hell with the First Amendment and Supreme Court precedent, even the New York Times reported that this administration prosecuted more reporters and whistleblowers for espionage than all prior administrations put together.
Remember Fox news reporter James Rosen? The Holder Justice Department not only seized his emails immediately and without his knowledge, they suggested he was a criminal co-conspirator in a leak caseunder the Espionage Actwhich carries a ten-year term of imprisonment.
And they quickly indicted former House Speaker Dennis Hastert and Senator Menendez on extremely stretched or tortured views of vague criminal statutes and factual allegations of conduct that may well not be criminal. Senator Menendez cant vacation with his best friend but Hillary Clinton and her Foundation can accept millions of dollars from foreign governments seeking to curry her favor.
Yet theres been no criminal investigation of Ms. Clinton and her cabal? They couldnt seize her server months ago while it contained all the emails? They couldnt put a stop to it from the beginning?

Oh right, I forgot. As the Wall Street Journal reported, Ms. Clinton had declined to allow an Inspector General at the State Department during her entire tenureso there was no internal oversight. And oh yes, her name is Clinton, and she has long deemed herself above the law. The rules only apply to everyone else.
But wait, theres still more. The current Assistant Attorney General for the Criminal Division of the Department of Justice, Leslie Caldwell, and her Chief of the Corporate Fraud Section, Andrew Weissmann, destroyed Arthur Andersen and its 85,000 jobs on unfounded charges of obstruction of justice for destroying documents the Supreme Court said it had no legal obligation to keep. The laws governing Ms. Clintons obligations are clear. Nonetheless, they havent even convened a grand jury to look into Ms. Clintons longstanding assertion that she wiped her server cleanof documents she was legally required to keep?
On top of that, there can be little doubt that Eric Holder and other high-ranking FBI and DOJ officials themselves wrote Ms. Clinton at Clintonemail.comnot to mention countless communications with the President and All His MusesCounter-terrrorism advisor Lisa Monaco, National Security Advisor Susan Rice, and then White House Counsel Kathryn Ruemmler (not to mention Valerie Jarrett)about Benghazi and all other top secret and classified issues. The DOJ hasnt subpoenaed the emails from any of the recipientsor the internet service providers? Or looked for them on the backup government servers of the accounts of all the recipients? And the State Department still today is making statements defending her?
Not only did Ms. Clinton deliberately demonstrate disdain for the Federal Records Act and nullify the protections of the Freedom of Information Act, she violated the Espionage Act by having information relating to the national defense on her server at all. And her deliberate disregard for national security made the job of all hackers that much easier.
In fact, the espionage actwhich regulates the handling of intelligence by government officials does not refer to classified information; it refers to information relating to the national defense. Moreover, it does not prohibit solely the transmission of such information; it criminalizes the communication, delivery, or transmission of that information; causing communication, delivery, or transmission of that information; permitting the removal of that information from its proper place of custody through gross negligence; permitting that information to be lost, stolen, abstracted, or destroyed through gross negligence; or, failing to make a prompt report to superiors in the government when an official knows that the information has been removed from its proper place of custody, communicated to someone not authorized to have it, lost, stolen, abstracted, or destroyed. See also Title 18 United States Code Section 2071 (prohibiting destruction of records).
The Inspector General for the Intelligence Community has advised Congress that even in the few emails he has reviewed, there was top secret informationin the form of digital satellite imagery and signals intelligence. Regardless of how it was marked, and no doubt Clinton will blame others, even a neophyte would have known that such information was of the highest secrecy Not surprisingly, the first seeds of Clintons deflecting the blame to underlings was sown by her protectors in the State Department itself last night.
Aside from that, her knowledge and intent do not matter under some of these statutes and are indefensible under others. General Petraeus certainly had no criminal intent, and neither did any of the reporters.
Ms. Clinton, however, established her entire system to avoid the law and in violation of the Espionage Actas she and her co-conspirators removed all records from the State Department from its inception. Compounding her crimes, she knowingly and willfully destroyed whatever she wanted to destroydespite or more likely because ofthe incriminating information it contained and in the face of the Benghazi investigation.
Theres still more. The countless false statements are crimes under 18 United States Code Section 1001both by Ms. Clinton to Congress (no classified information) and in writing by Cheryl Mills to the State Department and just filed with Judge Sullivanin which she states: On matters pertaining to the conduct of government business, it was her practice to use the officials government email accounts. We already know that Ms. Clinton used her personal server exclusively.
Anyone else would have been arrested by now. Until there is a massive change in this country, justice is a game.
Title 18 United States Code Section 1001 makes it a crime for anyone to knowingly and willfully falsify, conceal, or cover up a material fact, or make any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or misrepresentation, etc. Countless people are convicted felons under this statutesome for offenses that would never occur to anyone even to be a crime. And these are just a few of the possible statutes that it would appear to any federal prosecutor that she and her corrupt cabal violated.
As Lt. Col. Ralph Peters had the guts to say last night on FoxNews, Hillary Clinton is a criminal. Military heroes who have risked their lives for this country have gone to prison for less.
As discussed on NewsMaxTVs Hardline last night, its time for a national outcry for the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate and indict Ms. Clintons flagrant violations of some of our most important laws. Anyone else would have been arrested by now.
Until there is a massive change in this country, justice is a game.
CORRECTION: An earlier version of this story misstated the rank of Ralph Peters. He is a lieutenant colonel, not a general.
