1. It is an ongoing investigation.

There is likely nothing illegal and there is no relationship to Benghazi.

However, for me and others, it still speaks to her very poor professional boundaries, her sense of entitlement, and her capacity for lying when she really doesn't even need to do so.

Thanks for your concern, but I might still comment on what is revealed.

10. Why on earth would a candidate stop any of us

from thinking for ourselves and communicating our thoughts and opinions?

That is so ridiculous as to barely warrant a response.

But you Clinton types do tend towards the authoritarianism.

14. Total Republican meltdown in the house has removed any credibility that Republican investigators had

I'm waiting for Republicans in the Senate to crash and burn.

What are they waiting for?

7. Oh, I completely agree she did nothing illegal.

But, working in data security as I do, I still worry she was hacked and some of our secrets are now on a Chinese or Russian server because her own server wasn't secured very well.

And, I've never cared about the Benghazi crap. That was a witch hunt from day one.

2. The FBI still cares. Hillary is not out of the woods yet.

Bernie's answer was smart and in line with who he is. He wants to focus on the issues.

Unfortunately, Hillary's problems of her own creation will dog the primary until the end.

12. I've never supported the Benghazi committee or its continuation.

That is a separate question than HIllary's poor judgment from inception of the private server and dual use up through how she has handled the scrutiny of it.

Those judgments and decisions effect her candidacy. The FBI involvement is a whole other ball of wax. Are you suggesting that the FBI is on a politically motivated witch hunt?

8. Hillary lied. She keeps saying she did was "allowed". It was not allowed.

She made a mistake and it was also unethical.

I can certainly understand why a candidate would have better things to talk about.

But Bernie Sanders is not the boss of me and doesn't tell me what to do or think.

9. He is a politician first.

Truly the easiest comment one could make knowing that your surrogates, supporters, and republicans are going to take care of the dirty work for you. You really don't think the poster here who has posted up to five email stories a day from right with sources is going to stop, do you? Politics 101, have your people take care of the dirty work for you. To be clear, I see nothing wrong with it.

Even in replies to your op, you can see they strongly disagree with Sanders overall on this one. They know what their marching orders are, and it isn't what Sanders said on stage.
