How dcao we know she was emailing classified material? I think you are just making that up. Without that, your whole argument falls apart.

I believe the State Dept admitted it.

>> Do you have any proof the server was compromised? Not guesses, proof.

I'm sorry. I've apparently confused you with someone who knows a little bit about networks.

Clearly, neither you nor I are security experts; however, intuitively, it is pretty close to 100% probability the server was successfully attacked. And apparently, other people who ARE experts agree about that:

"I have no doubt in my mind that this thing was penetrated by multiple foreign powers, to assume otherwise is to put blinders on,” said Bob Gourley, the chief technology officer at the Defense Intelligence Agency from 2005 to 2008.

“Although the American people didn’t know about this, it’s almost certain that foreign intelligence agencies did, just as the NSA knows which Indian and Spanish officials use Gmail and Yahoo accounts,” says Chris Soghoian, the lead technologist for the American Civil Liberties Union.

The former Defense Intelligence Agency director said that there was a “very high” chance that Clinton’s e-mail had been breached by China, Russia, Iran, or North Korea. He added that even allied countries may have gotten in on the action, just “because they can.”? Flynn said that while in theory Clinton could have secured her account and server well-enough to deter hackers, he remained skeptical that she actually had. “I just know how our adversaries work,” he said.

Hell, Network Solutions, which had the domain name, was hacked in 2010. It could well be that someone could have been intercepting emails as simply as that.

The bottom line is that we are as certain as we can be that yes, foreign countries hacked into her email. Unless she willingly gives up the server so the logs are available, and I don't see that happening, the consensus view among people who ought to know is that she did a pretty damned stupid thing that exposed the US to serious risks.

So, back to the original question. Has she shown the requisite judgment to become a president when she was emailing classified documents to/from her home email server?

If you believe she DOES have the judgment, how do you justify that position given the risk, NO, THE ACTUAL, threat of foreign governments accessing classified information by her incompetence.

Put another way, were YOU Secretary of State, would YOU do what she did?
