2016 Postmortem

Exactly what "drawbacks" did HRC mention that Kerry learned from? It does not seem that HRC had a problem with her email --- until she got in trouble earlier this year. In fact, both HRC and Kerry acted completely in line with what anyone who followed them closely through their careers would have expected. The fact is that Kerry, from day one, used State.gov. There has been nothing that suggests that Clinton spoke to the Obama team or Kerry on the down side of using private email. In addition, note that she did NOT give the State Department her email. HRC has a history of both being secretive and skirting rules -- Kerry doesn't.

Your post did smear Kerry. Anyone who did not click on the Globe link would not have known that the article showed huge differences in their email uses. More importantly, it spoke of how - even though Kerry rarely got anything government related on his personal email - he had a process to insure that those messages were captured.

You can argue that everything to do with email is unimportant. It is possible that when everything is learned that enough people will think it should not be a deal breaker. You can not honestly claim that John Kerry is doing what Hillary did - and that is precisely what you did.

As to anything else - it is irrelevant to the question of Kerry's and HRC's email practices. There is no reason to argue who was the better Senator, Secretary of State or even person. It is simply a diversion.
