It was found that the Democrat nominee for president had used a private server while serving four years as U.S. secretary of state.

Investigations began. The revelation did not affect her voters. Hillary Clinton was questioned, and she talked. It did not affect her poll numbers. She was questioned again. All this time she was ahead of Donald Trump, the Republican nominee.

The FBI director investigated the case and made a statement. He told of how she lied specifically many times, and he said she had been excessively careless, but did not file charges. Another interview was compared to the FBI interview, and many differences were found that uncovered obvious lies. After all of this, she remained ahead in the polls.

As time passed, another discovery showed those who gave large donations to the Clinton Foundation could have access to the U.S. State Department - pay for play. News programs wanted to ask her questions about pay for play.

She has sent members of her campaign staff to answer the media for her. One staff member looked at the host and answered this damaging question with a straight face and showed no feeling of shame.

The answer was something like that is the way the government is. It is done like that all the time in Congress and state governments. The host was shaken and stumbled for words to say.

So much could be said here, but let me just simply say honesty has always been valued in the American way of life. But for years now, liberals have been teaching that a lie that accomplishes a worthy goal has virtue.

Do we really want our America to be this way? Let us quit making our own rules and return to the Bible. In it, the New Testament presents a virtuous lifestyle, plus God is present. By reading it prayerfully, God will fill us with Himself, which brings truth and virtue.
