Clinton’s Bubble Separates Her From Voters

September 15, 2014 by McClatchy-Tribune

INDIANOLA, Iowa (MCT) — Hillary Clinton is trapped in a bubble.
She’s been guarded by the Secret Service since 1993. She hasn’t driven a car since 1996. When she shakes hands with voters — as she did Sunday in Iowa — she’s often separated from them by metal barriers.
In some ways, Clinton is a prisoner of her own success. The Secret Service protection has been there since she became first lady in 1993, and it will follow her the rest of her life. In other ways, she has fed the sense that she is removed from the lives of everyday Americans, such as when she complained this year that she was “dead broke” when she left the White House.
One scene Sunday illustrated her challenge as she went to Iowa, her first trek there since losing the state’s presidential caucuses in 2008 to Barack Obama and an unofficial kickoff of her attempt to win it this time, as well as the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination.
She and her husband attended the annual steak fry hosted by retiring Sen. Tom Harkin, a chance to meet and mingle with many of the roughly 6,000 Iowa Democrats who attended.
After arriving in a motorcade, she was driven to the site of a gas grill to cook steaks as hundreds of media people watched. The site was so far from the crowd that it was impossible to see her. She did not walk down the grass hill and shake hands with the throng below. She did not sit in the tents and eat with the people who paid $30 for their meals.
Such rituals are commonplace in the nation’s traditional first caucus state. White House hopefuls are expected to go to the state fair and eat fried Twinkies, play catch at the Field of Dreams and blend seamlessly into the steak fry crowd.
Clinton, though, was next visible at the podium, waiting to speak. She did make an effort to relate. In her brief speech she joked about her presidential ambitions, spoke excitedly about her first grandchild and offered passionate advocacy for women’s struggles. She recalled her middle-class roots and talked about her mother’s difficult childhood.
When she did work the fence line later for about 20 minutes, supporters were ecstatic. James Livesey, a human resources manager, asked her if she remembered him from her book tour, and she nodded yes. Linda Johnson, a nurse, got a selfie.
But her husband provided a reminder why Hillary Clinton has some work to do. Bill Clinton was about five steps behind, as Bonnie Brown, an Ankeny security officer, introduced him to her 4-year-old son Preston.
Clinton picked up the child, who promptly lost his shoe. The former president held Preston and talked about the child and his shoe. Cameras snapped. Everyone laughed.
If only Hillary Clinton could show that same ease, people said, she would help dispel the notion she’s out of touch. Iowa voters will watch for such moments. They expect candidates to call, court and feed them over the next 16 months, and most will not make up their minds until the end.
Clinton will never entirely escape the bubble. She’s spent the past two decades there, eight as first lady, eight as a U.S. senator and four as secretary of state. By law, former presidents and first ladies are provided Secret Service protection for life.
Since leaving government, her schedule has been consumed with speeches and fundraisers, and security remains tight. Her dealings with the public have been largely sitting in bookstores autographing her State Department memoir, “Hard Choices,” for admirers.
Clinton’s bigger challenge is her performance outside the comfort zone.
Perhaps most damaging, she told ABC’s Diane Sawyer in June, “We came out of the White House not only dead broke, but in debt.” Clinton reportedly gets $200,000 per speech. Two months later, Clinton, now a multimillionaire, said she regretted the remark.
To skeptics, such comments reinforce their concerns about Clinton.
“Hillary is part of the political machine, and we need somebody to break through,” said Brenda Brink, a dietician from Huxley.
The same attitude drives Maggie Rawland, a Des Moines teacher, to prefer Sen. Bernard Sanders, a Vermont independent, and his decidedly populist views. Sanders was in Iowa this weekend and is considering a longshot bid for the Democratic presidential nomination. “Some say she’s the candidate of Wall Street. I know Sanders is not,” Rawland said.
Mary Krier, an Ollie insurance agent, agreed, though she had a different take on Clinton. “We have to be realistic, and we need a woman in office,” Krier said. Sanders may feel voters’ pain, but Clinton has a better chance to win, she figured.

While Trying to Talk Up Hillary’s Accomplishments in Healthcare, Dem Senator Unwittingly Bashes Her

1,369 Shares By Caroline Schaeffer 12 hours ago



Hillary Clinton is in Iowa this week, hinting her way through several speeches regarding her presidential ambitions. The announced reason for her visit is retiring Senator Tom Harkin’s annual Steak Fry, but anyone could tell you that a visit to such a political hotbed doesn’t come without ramifications.
But Harkin may have put his foot in his mouth concerning what he said when introducing the former Secretary of State, announcing that Clinton was instrumental in leading the country towards the belief that health care was a “right” and not a privilege in America.
Harkin was so gracious in his healthcare-related compliments that he perhaps went a bit too far in his praise, telling the crowd that though Hillary was not there when Obamacare was signed into law, her “fingerprints were all over that legislation.”
Perhaps he’s not seen the ACA’s approval rating recently, or noticed how far other politicians have run from the government program.
Or maybe it was no mistake after all? Earlier, he told ABC News that he still has “real questions” about where Hillary stands on many issues.

Former State Dept Official: Hillary Clinton Aides Purged Docs from Benghazi Report to Cover Up Guilt

41 Shares By Victoria Taft 38 mins ago

Hillary Clinton’s Chief of Staff and Assistant Chief of Staff reportedly presided over an operation to scrub certain documents that may have implicated negligence and malfeasance in the Benghazi attack on September 11, 2012.
Sharyl Attkisson covered the story in The Daily Signal, based on a report by a former high-ranking State Department official.
Former Deputy Secretary of State Raymond Maxwell claims he attended a meeting in which he witnessed two high level Clinton aides ordering staffers to cull through boxes of documents to purge materials which may implicate Clinton or her top staffers in the Benghazi disaster.
Although The Daily Signal story did not name the officials conducting the file purge, Congressman Jason Chaffetz, a member of the House Oversight Committee which began the Benghazi investigation (it’s since been turned over to a Select Committee), did. Chaffetz told Fox News the cover-up goes all the way to Hillary Clinton’s office:

And the people that were in that room directing traffic, were none other than Hillary Clinton’s Chief of Staff, Cheryl Mills, and Jake Sullivan, her deputy chief of staff. It doesn’t get anymore high ranking than that!

The Daily Signal reports:

Maxwell says the weekend document session was held in the basement of the State Department’s Foggy Bottom headquarters in a room underneath the “jogger’s entrance.” He describes it as a large space, outfitted with computers and big screen monitors, intended for emergency planning, and with small offices on the periphery.

When he arrived, Maxwell says he observed boxes and stacks of documents. He says a State Department office director, whom Maxwell described as close to Clinton’s top advisers, was there.

His aide was also there and though she worked for him, he was not told of her Sunday file purging duties…

“She told me, ‘Ray, we are to go through these stacks and pull out anything that might put anybody in the [Near Eastern Affairs] front office or the seventh floor in a bad light,’” says Maxwell. He says “seventh floor” was State Department shorthand for then-Secretary of State Clinton and her principal advisers.

Congressman Chaffetz says Clinton’s people were scrubbing documents before investigators got a look at them. As he told Fox News:

They were essentially creating two piles: The things the Accountability Review Board and that Congress would see and anything else that would shed quote ‘bad light’ on Hillary Clinton and her senior management that they were put in a different pile and they were never to be seen.

Chaffetz also says Ray Maxwell came to him and Congressman Trey Gowdy more than a year ago with his story, and has remained consistent. What he doesn’t answer is why he failed to divulge the story in previous Benghazi hearings. The Select Committee on Benghazi is holding hearings starting Wednesday and the issue of purging documents is certain to come up.
Four Americans, including the Ambassador to Libya, Christopher Stevens, were attacked and murdered by terrorists at the American compound in Benghazi, and at a follow-up attack at the CIA headquarters nearby.
Neither the State Department, nor the Department of Defense, attempted to extract the Ambassador or American service personnel, as protocol demanded. According to several accounts, those willing to attempt a rescue operation at Benghazi were told to “stand down.”
The attack was dismissed by the White House and Secretary of State as a retaliation for a YouTube video insulting Muslims.
The lack of coherence in the official story line from the administration–considering it took place on the anniversary of 9/11 — left many people wondering about the responsibility of those in charge.

Ingraham on Explosive New Benghazi Report: 'If True, It's Felony Obstruction of Justice'

Laura Ingraham joined Fox and Friends this morning to react to a new Benghazi bombshell, reported by Sharyl Attkisson. In the report, a State Department diplomat accuses Hillary Clinton’s staff members of secretly moving damaging documents before turning over files to the Accountability Review Board.

Former Deputy Assistant Secretary Raymond Maxwell says that he witnessed an after-hours session in the basement of the State Department, where some of Hillary Clinton’s confidants separated out documents that included “damaging” information.
Here's more from the report:

Maxwell says the weekend document session was held in the basement of the State Department’s Foggy Bottom headquarters in a room underneath the “jogger’s entrance.” He describes it as a large space, outfitted with computers and big screen monitors, intended for emergency planning, and with small offices on the periphery.
When he arrived, Maxwell says he observed boxes and stacks of documents. He says a State Department office director, whom Maxwell described as close to Clinton’s top advisers, was there. Though the office director technically worked for him, Maxwell says he wasn’t consulted about her weekend assignment.
“She told me, ‘Ray, we are to go through these stacks and pull out anything that might put anybody in the [Near Eastern Affairs] front office or the seventh floor in a bad light,’” says Maxwell. He says “seventh floor” was State Department shorthand for then-Secretary of State Clinton and her principal advisers.
“I asked her, ‘But isn’t that unethical?’ She responded, ‘Ray, those are our orders.’ ”
A few minutes after he arrived, Maxwell says, in walked two high-ranking State Department officials.

Ingraham said if the report is true, then it's a clear case of obstruction of justice, calling for an immediate investigation by Attorney General Eric Holder.
She said Maxwell is a distinguished public servant and right now there is no reason not to believe what he's saying.
"If these allegations are true, we are talking obstruction of justice. We are talking, potentially, for each count of obstruction five years in federal prison. This is not a joke. This is not 'Fox is obsessed with Benghazi.' This is a civil servant who was an Obama supporter, gave money to the Obama campaign, who was scapegoated - according to him - as one of the people responsible for the failures of security in that compound," said Ingraham, likening these allegations to the "cleanup mission" carried out by Harvey Keitel's character in "Pulp Fiction."
Watch the full analysis above, including Laura's thoughts on the president's ISIS strategy.
