    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.”

    With Hillary making another run for president, don’t get caught
    up in the lies and spin! In “Hillary Unhinged: In Her Own
    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.

    19) Clinton Foundation: Scandals keep coming

    As WND reported, the Clintons appear to have siphoned off tens
    of millions of dollars annually from funds the Bill, Hillary,
    and Chelsea Clinton Foundation has received from a United
    Nations-sponsored program that uses levies on airline tickets to
    help HIV/AIDs victims in the Third World, charges Wall Street
    analyst and investor Charles Ortel. The Clinton Foundation also
    reportedly distributed useless drugs to AIDS patients in Third-
    World countries.

    Although Hillary was appointed to the board of directors of the
    Clinton Foundation in 2013, after she had resigned as secretary
    of state, Ortel contends she is complicit in what he has
    described as systematic financial fraud warranting a criminal
    investigation.

    After months of tedious investigation, Ortel has concluded the
    foundation has filed financial and tax forms that were
    materially misleading, incomplete and in error with the goal of
    enriching the Clintons and their close associates. Ortel alleges
    Hillary advanced an “inurement” scheme – enriching oneself
    through a nonprofit organization – in complicity with her
    husband by positioning various key associates within the Clinton
    Foundation structure while she served as U.S. senator from New
    York and subsequently as secretary of state under President
    Obama.

    “Ongoing analysis of legally required public disclosures reveals
    that while Mrs. Clinton served as director, the Clinton
    Foundation and its principal constituent elements, filed false
    and materially misleading tax returns with the IRS and with
    other governmental authorities, for multiple years,” Ortel
    charges in his second report on alleged Clinton Foundation
    mismanagement.

    As WND also recently reported, based on Ortel’s findings, a
    prominent lawyer and a top government watchdog in the nation’s
    capital are calling for the Clinton Foundation to be shut down.

    In April, the New York Times reported, “Cash flowed to Clinton
    Foundation as Russians pressed for control of uranium company.”

    Hillary has said, “I am very proud of the work the Foundation
    does,” but just 9 percent of the Foundation’s money went to
    charity in 2013. Fox News’ John Stossel noted, “Charity
    Navigator, the biggest charity rating service, won’t even list
    the Clinton Foundation in its rankings. This is repulsive. If a
    Republican candidate ran a charity that did that, it would be a
    scandal. But the Clintons must be immune.”

    WND reported Sunday that before Hillary completed her first year
    as President Obama’s secretary of state, Ortel calculates $17
    million went missing from Clinton Foundation financial reports.

    The New York Post recently reported Hillary’s former chief of
    staff and counselor, Cheryl Mills, “knows where the bodies are
    buried” in many Clinton scandals, has been at Hillary’s side
    since the 1990s and “has a long track record of hiding Clinton
    documents.” According to the Post, Hillary gave her the job of
    “identifying and preserving all emails that could potentially be
    federal records.” The Post added, “And, presumably, deleting.”
    Mills, who has officially been accused of perjury and
    obstruction of justice, is a key member of the Clinton
    Foundation board.

    Sounds like Obama and his Hollywood funding butthole buddies...
