looking at the financial statement, the audited financial statement in the form 990, it's, it's al capone, if you think about the analogy of a gangster and chicago who went to jail not for racketeering but income tax evasion. my book is complementary to the excellent work that peter schweitzer has done. as he is arguing a case for pay to play which is that people paid the clintons in order to get a policy decision either when hillary clinton was in the senate or secretary of state, made in their favor, this otherwise would not have been made. it was bought and paid for by the money given to the clinton foundation. now i'm convinced, having looked at the evidence myself, that he is right. i think the difficulty is that it's a vulnerable argument because the clinton veteran can come on television and say peter doesn't have any proof that there was a nexus between the contribution of the foundation and the policy decision reached. he doesn't have that proof in large part because the evidence has been destroyed or withheld. the e-mail is destroyed which we know clinton foundation employees an
