Is Hillary Clinton Dishonest?

Nicholas Kristof APRIL 23, 2016

AFTER the New York primary, the betting websites are giving Hillary Clinton about a 94 percent chance of being the Democratic nominee, and Donald Trump a 66 percent chance of ending up as the Republican nominee.

But Clinton’s big challenge is the trust issue: The share of voters who have negative feelings toward her has soared from 25 percent in early 2013 to 56 percent today, and a reason for that is that they distrust her. Only a bit more than one-third of American voters regard Clinton as “honest and trustworthy.”

Indeed, when Gallup asks Americans to say the first word that comes to mind when they hear “Hillary Clinton,” the most common response can be summed up as “dishonest/liar/don’t trust her/poor character.” Another common category is “criminal/crooked/thief/belongs in jail.”

All this is, I think, a mistaken narrative.

Good grief.  I used to work in the funeral business, so I googled "celebrities in caskets" and came up with all kinds of pics. 

I know this is off topic, but did you know Bela Lugosi insisted that he be buried in his vampire attire in his casket?

I did not! Did that image end up in an Ed Wood movie?

What's surprising to me is that only 56% find her dishonest and untrustworthy

Were have those who find her honest been hiding these last several decades?
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
