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.”

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.

1) Clintons turn IRS into ‘gestapo’

Few federal agencies are more feared and loathed by Americans
than the Internal Revenue Service – especially when corrupt
presidents abuse the power of the IRS to harass and exact
revenge on political enemies. As WND has reported, during Bill
Clinton’s terms in office, IRS audits were conducted against
individuals and groups who caused problems for the
administration. Several prominent conservative groups found
themselves facing IRS audits following their criticism of the
president and his policies. Among the conservative groups
targeted for audits were the Heritage Foundation, the National
Rifle Association, Concerned Women of America, Citizens Against
Government Waste, National Review, American Spectator (which was
burglarized three times), the National Center for Public Policy
Research, the American Policy Center, American Cause, Citizens
for Honest Government, Progress and Freedom Foundation, David
Horowitz’s Center for the Study of Popular Culture and the
Western Journalism Center.

Individuals singled out for audits during the administration
included Clinton paramours Gennifer Flowers and Liz Ward Gracen,
sexual assault accusers Paula Jones and Juanita Broaddrick,
fired White House Travel Office Director Billy Dale and attorney
Kent Masterson Brown. Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly, an outspoken
critic of both Bill and Hillary Clinton, said he was audited
three times during the Clinton presidency.

A 1996 survey by the Washington Times could not identify a
single liberal public policy organization that had been audited
during the entire Clinton administration.

Sounds like Obama...
