"Mrs. Clinton did not have a government email address during her four-year tenure at the State Department. Her aides took no actions to have her personal emails preserved on department servers at the time, as required by the Federal Records Act."
"Her expansive use of the private account was alarming to current and former National Archives and Records Administration officials and government watchdogs, who called it a serious breach.
“It is very difficult to conceive of a scenario — short of nuclear winter — where an agency would be justified in allowing its cabinet-level head officer to solely use a private email communications channel for the conduct of government business,”
For four years nobody questioned her use of a personal email accoumt.

I voted for defend, though I wouldn't say I defend it. I really just don't care.
Is something like this that big of a deal, really? If it's some policy violation, just tell her to forward what she has to an official email, and stop using it. The NSA probably has access to all that information anyway, so who cares? Personal or private email; the information is still shielded form the people.
This seems like a non-issue.
Repub's are just trying to see what might stick to the wall.

Assuming she used her personal email address for state business, you really don't see an issue potentially sending sensitive government documents through something like gmail?
Do you also keep a spare key to your house under the front door mat?
Good for John Kerry.
It has been the law. A law the passed Congress. A democrat controlled congress at that.
They though the republicans were doing what they got caught at(Lenner((deleted and tried everything to destroy them))and now Clinton((who blatantly disregarded the federal law like it didn't apply to her)
The law was passed and signed in Nov 2014, Hillary left office in Feb 2013... just sayin'
Lib here. There's no excuse for this, and it shouldn't be swept under the rug. She/her people screwed up big time.
It is good too see some one that does not defend their party when they are in the wrong. Keep it up and do not become a lock step partisan this forum is full of them.
This is a big deal. As Secretary of State she knowingly:
- Broke the law by not using the secure email address supplied to her that should have served as an archive of her communications.
- Ran all email communications through a private email server, which potentially leaves all of those discussions vulnerable to hackers
- Did not keep records of all of her correspondences; since they were outside of the system she could delete anything she wanted.
Regardless of it was a R or D who did this, its not only wildly irresponsible, its also extremely arrogant to think you don't have to follow the law. Everyone should be alarmed she did this and hold her accountable. Thankfully, there are a high number of sane Democrats who are calling her out, but its amazing anyone can defend this or doesn't think its a big deal.

Non-issue? Unbelievable. I'm not sure you're even qualified to have a debate about politics if you don't see a problem with this.
