I think that before we consider a politician's positions, we need to consider his or her character--the integrity and fitness to govern.
I know that many people have concerns about the character of both major party candidates--and they are free to choose other candidates.
My doubts about Trump's character would preclude my ever voting for him, even if his positions were closer to my own.
I think that Hillary has made minor errors in judgment. I am unconcerned about the foundation, and the State Department said there is absolutely NO evidence of impropriety in her meetings while Secretary of State.
Sadly, this is the way the world works--and some of us have even benefited from it ourselves from time to time. In the work world it's called "networking." My husband, with one semester of college, got a job as a computer programmer trainee through my uncle (whose company usually only hired college graduates for IT jobs). My uncle didn't get him the "job," but he got him the interview, and his aptitude scores were so high he got himself the job (he was also a Vietnam vet). That job led him, eventually, to the vice presidency of two other companies--that early foot in the door (and networking helped him when he was unemployed).
Building relationships is an important skill to a successful life (yes, and many people even use their contacts in church for upward mobility, and some even GO to church to build those relationships, regardless of how strong their faith is).
If the world operated differently, I would criticize the Clinton Foundation, but I would defy you to find a single politician or official in Washington who acts differently.
