Hillary, as all previous Secretaries of State was a political appointee, and subject to very different public records rules than a career employee. After all, part of her job was inherently political as part of the Obama administration, and political records legally confidential and separate, as well as personal email. Hillary's sin was trying to simplify her email nightmare.  A recent critical commentary reported there were 55,000 pages of official records, which had to be separate from probably an equal volume of non-official records. And people wonder why the politically motivated investigation is taking so long and so much resources. And I thought my email was out of control!
