Is Hillary Clinton Dishonest?

Hillary Clinton has the reputation of being dishonest.

I submit that reputation is false.

She is not very "transparent."  She is certainly not as "transparent" as some people would like her to be.

But, there is little or no evidence that she is dishonest.

She has been investigated many, many times.  Whitewater.  Benghazi.  Her e-mail server.  There has never been any evidence that she committed a crime and scant evidence that she was not truthful.

What there has been is lots of smoke, generated mostly by the investigators.  But, they have never been able to find any fire.  Not once.

Hillary Clinton has been the subject of lots of allegations in the past three decades or so.  So many that they have left her with the reputation of being dishonest, even without evidence of that dishonesty.  The old saying that "where there's smoke, there must be fire."  But, there just isn't any more evidence of that than there would be with anyone else who had been accused of being dishonest over and over for a long period of time.

Not transparent?  Sure.  Secretive?  Yes.  Dishonest?  No.
