As most people know, Hillary Clinton is now running for the second time to be the President of The United States of America. Mrs. Clinton is the spouse of Mr. Bill Clinton who was previously a President of our great nation. Well, based off what has been said so far, here is some news that may shock you to say the least. Or, it may not surprise you at all. Hillary Clinton used her personal email for work and personal use when she was in office as the Secretary of State. Not only was it just her personal email, it was a whole email server dedicated to Mrs. Clinton. Yes, it was allowed by the government for her to do that as long as she turned in her government issued emails to the office when her work day was over. Mrs. Clinton had not given those emails up until about twenty-one months of being out of office. In August of 2014, the FBI opened an investigation regarding the confidentiality of the emails that Mrs. Clinton was receiving from other government officials. She claimed that everyone had known that she was using a personal email except for the one person who really should’ve known. President Barack Obama claims he was not aware of Mrs. Clinton’s use of a personal email server for government use. In March of this year, she was asked to turn over her private email server but when asked, she declared her server to remain private. Just recently has Mrs. Clinton been acknowledging her mistake in using a private email server, as well as apologizing, Each time she apologizes, she has a different response claiming she wasn’t in the wrong for using a private server, she was just wrong for not establishing it with everyone she was sending and receiving emails. From a business perspective, there should be an email server dedicated to the business specifically and in order to share information about the business, employees should only be referred to the work email for use.
