So...you don't understand the SF-312. Ok. Even if she doesn't get charged, her clearance will be revoked. Can't be president if you don't have a clearance.
What does that have to do with the issue being discussed? Neither Cruz, nor Trump illegally handled classified data. Clinton did. If she is charged with a felony, which is what current Federal laws mandate for this type of offense, and is subsequently convicted, that sort of adds a wrinkle to her nomination.
It's not like Clinton took classified information and sold it to the Red Chinese or sent it to her publicist for use in a new book. The emails were there for the purpose of conducting legitimate governmental business.
To restate, in the scheme of things, the email issue was a minor mistake. Compared to Cruz's bone-head idea that we should carpet bomb in Syria or Trump's plan to bomb Iraq's oil fields, the email issue is of minor comparative importance when deciding who should be president. But we all know that the GOP must bang the drum on the emails because the GOP candidates have nothing but stupid foreign policy ideas, that actually do jeopardize national security. It's another "follow the shiny object" tactic. "Don't focus on the GOP candidates that will escalate wars and get American soldiers killed -- focus on these emails."

Hyperbole and deflection. Mishandling of, and possible exposure of sensitive national intelligence is hardly a "minor mistake". Spare me your inflammatory rhetoric about the GOP candidates that, as previously mentioned, have absolutely no bearing on this discussion.
I would say that pulling out of Iraq and now Afghanistan based on a time table, versus establishing conditions, has created the vacuum filled by ISIS in Iraq, and has seen, and will continue to see the reexpansion of the Taliban in Afghanistan. This essentially renders the loss of U.S. lives in those two countries completely in vain.
