During his 1992 campaign for the presidency, Bill Clinton was 
fond of promising America, “You get two for the price of one,” 
indicating Hillary Clinton would act as his co-president.

But the nation got much more than it bargained for, as the top 
power couple brought a load of baggage with them into the White 
House from their days in Arkansas.

After the Clintons moved into the presidential mansion, the 
political scandals multiplied – from use of the IRS and FBI to 
target political opponents to stalking and harassing subjects of 
Bill Clinton’s sexual advances and even attempts to loot 
taxpayer-funded items from the White House. Americans also 
witnessed capers such as Travelgate, Chinagate, Filegate and 
Pardongate.

Bill Clinton’s sexual escapades and subsequent impeachment by 
the U.S. House of Representatives on charges of perjury and 
obstruction of justice consumed more than a year of American 
public life and bitterly divided the nation.

In the years since the memorable Clinton presidency, Hillary has 
brought America Emailgate and the Benghazi scandal, among 
others. New developments in the Clinton Foundation scandals 
emerges almost daily.

Now, it’s Hillary’s “turn” to be president, according to her 
Democrat supporters.

But in 2015, America is still apparently suffering from “Clinton 
fatigue.” Results from a Quinnipiac poll published in April 
revealed between 49 and 56 percent of voters in three 
significant swing states – Colorado, Virginia and Iowa – believe 
Hillary is neither honest nor trustworthy.

Even former California Democratic Party Chairman Bill Press told 
WND that controversies surrounding Hillary should convince 
members of his own party an uncontested coronation of Clinton as 
the party’s 2016 nominee for the White House is a very risky 
idea and should encourage other Democrats to throw their hats in 
the ring.

Sen. Marco Rubio, a Republican candidate for president, said 
Sunday he believes voters will reject Hillary because of the 
“cloud of constant scandal she brings to the political process.”

Rubio told Fox News Sunday, “Unfortunately, both under her 
husband’s presidency, her time in the Department of State, her 
campaign for the president last time and even now, there seems 
to be this cloud of constant scandal and things that distract us 
from the core issues of the moment.”

Hillary’s “drama” could become a distraction, Rubio warned, at a 
time when the stakes are high for America in the 2016 election.

“I just think that at this hinge moment in our history, where we 
are asked to make a transition from the past into this new 
future, with all the challenges and the opportunities of our 
time that we really – the American people are not at a point now 
where they are going to be supportive of more drama surrounding 
the political process,” he said.

In 2003, ABC News’ Barbara Walters referenced numerous Clinton 
scandals from Whitewater to Travelgate and the death of Hillary 
law partner Vince Foster in an interview with then-Sen. Clinton.

Walters asked Hillary, “How did you get in this mess where your 
whole credibility is being questioned?”

Hillary’s response: “Oh, I ask myself that every day, Barbara, 
because it’s very surprising and confusing to me.”

With Hillary making another run for president, don’t get caught 
up in the lies and spin! In “Hillary Unhinged: In Her Own 
Words,” find out who the true Hillary is with this raw and 
humorous collection of quotes that pitilessly underscores her 
hypocrisy

With the prospect of another “two-for-one” Clinton presidency 
looming, is America ready for a repeat of the Bill and Hillary 
“drama” in the White House?

If, as psychologists say, “The best predictor of future behavior 
is past behavior,” then a fresh look at the top 20 scandals 
involving Hillary is in order.

19) Clinton Foundation: Scandals keep coming

As WND reported, the Clintons appear to have siphoned off tens 
of millions of dollars annually from funds the Bill, Hillary, 
and Chelsea Clinton Foundation has received from a United 
Nations-sponsored program that uses levies on airline tickets to 
help HIV/AIDs victims in the Third World, charges Wall Street 
analyst and investor Charles Ortel. The Clinton Foundation also 
reportedly distributed useless drugs to AIDS patients in Third-
World countries.

Although Hillary was appointed to the board of directors of the 
Clinton Foundation in 2013, after she had resigned as secretary 
of state, Ortel contends she is complicit in what he has 
described as systematic financial fraud warranting a criminal 
investigation.

After months of tedious investigation, Ortel has concluded the 
foundation has filed financial and tax forms that were 
materially misleading, incomplete and in error with the goal of 
enriching the Clintons and their close associates. Ortel alleges 
Hillary advanced an “inurement” scheme – enriching oneself 
through a nonprofit organization – in complicity with her 
husband by positioning various key associates within the Clinton 
Foundation structure while she served as U.S. senator from New 
York and subsequently as secretary of state under President 
Obama.

“Ongoing analysis of legally required public disclosures reveals 
that while Mrs. Clinton served as director, the Clinton 
Foundation and its principal constituent elements, filed false 
and materially misleading tax returns with the IRS and with 
other governmental authorities, for multiple years,” Ortel 
charges in his second report on alleged Clinton Foundation 
mismanagement.

As WND also recently reported, based on Ortel’s findings, a 
prominent lawyer and a top government watchdog in the nation’s 
capital are calling for the Clinton Foundation to be shut down.

In April, the New York Times reported, “Cash flowed to Clinton 
Foundation as Russians pressed for control of uranium company.”

Hillary has said, “I am very proud of the work the Foundation 
does,” but just 9 percent of the Foundation’s money went to 
charity in 2013. Fox News’ John Stossel noted, “Charity 
Navigator, the biggest charity rating service, won’t even list 
the Clinton Foundation in its rankings. This is repulsive. If a 
Republican candidate ran a charity that did that, it would be a 
scandal. But the Clintons must be immune.”

WND reported Sunday that before Hillary completed her first year 
as President Obama’s secretary of state, Ortel calculates $17 
million went missing from Clinton Foundation financial reports.

The New York Post recently reported Hillary’s former chief of 
staff and counselor, Cheryl Mills, “knows where the bodies are 
buried” in many Clinton scandals, has been at Hillary’s side 
since the 1990s and “has a long track record of hiding Clinton 
documents.” According to the Post, Hillary gave her the job of 
“identifying and preserving all emails that could potentially be 
federal records.” The Post added, “And, presumably, deleting.” 
Mills, who has officially been accused of perjury and 
obstruction of justice, is a key member of the Clinton 
Foundation board.

Sounds like Obama and his Hollywood funding butthole buddies...
