Then-Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., speaks at a benefit gala for the Clinton Foundation at the American Museum of Natural History in New York on Oct. 28, 2006. The charitable foundation run by Hillary Rodham Clinton's family faces an uncertain future if she is elected president, with unresolved questions about who would be authorized to fundraise for the organization and whether new foreign and domestic projects could be started during that period.

I just don’t get this. The Clinton Foundation does so much good in the world, including lowering the cost of HIV/AIDS treatment and delivering cheaper drugs to more than 9 million people. Neither Bill nor Hillary Clinton benefits financially from this foundation.

So, why all the outrage over conflicts of interest? What does Hillary Clinton have to gain by crossing a line here? It seems to me that many of the people giving large sums of money ($10,000 to $1 million) probably are people she is already acquainted with. People who would have access to her anyway.

We should be thankful to people such as the Clintons who use their influence for good in the world.
