Hillary Clinton has already sold one million copies of her book, according to Mike Allen. Her book, Hard Choices, is set to be released next month.
"EXCLUSIVE: The initial printing of Hillary Rodham Clintons 'Hard Choices,' out June 10 from Simon & Schuster, was 1 million books and sold out after the publishers unconventional reveal of giving Vogue a Mothers Day excerpt. Thats a real spike, and the figure doesnt include retail preorders: Bookstores and other retailers ordered 1 million for further sale to the public -- a seal of approval from the booksellers that people will want to read the book," Allen reports.

True. Are you aware that Amazon has a ‘button’ for books by authors or publishers they do not want to sell or promote, and they actually hinder those sales by conservatives? Hatchette publishers has been in a lawsuit with Amazon over this and the books they publish.
Amazon is left, left, left.
ALL public numbers these days are SOMEHOW cooked —always.
Employment, polls, inflation, book sales —all of it.
Book publishing does lend itself to money laundering and bribery. We know of cases where people, unions, whatever, have done exactly that. Bought thousands of copies and stored them in a warehouse, bought them and handed them out free, bought them and sent them straight to the landfill.
I don't see, though, why they should have to actually spend paper and ink printing them if they are going straight to landfill. Simply transfer the money, and show on the ledger that a million copies were printed and delivered. Report to the press that a million copies were sold. Who is going to bother to verify as long as taxes are paid on the moneys transferred and received?
So in the modern era that is my assumption. The books were never printed, simply credited as printed as the money changed hands.
Or they have been sold to distributors. There is no way that she has 1 million orders from individuals who want to read it.
Liberals, as despicable as they are, take care of each other, and make sure that each "member" of their "club" makes money.
They've got it figured out. Liberals are in the "end game" waiting for checkmate, while Conservatives are salivating over the thought of picking up a mere handful of Congressional seats in November.
The death of 10,000 trees.
Hey campers need TP!
Someone who got a deal and needed toilet paper.
Maybe Hillary used that $6 billion of ‘missing’ money to buy the books for foreign embassies and CIA black market shops.
Considering she will get around 50 million votes in 2016 since we have such a split country.....the Republican hopefully will get 50 million and one. 1 million is not great. Hardly worth bragging about. I don’t think this is worthy of a conspiracy theory since 1 million books out of 50 million Democrats is epic fail.
Yeah. It is basically a back door political donation that does an end around
legal donations.

Leftists are leftists. I have one payment left and then canceling my Amazon credit card, which was a good offer but is actually the horrific GE credit at 25%. Leftists gouge. I never pay interest, but I feel sorry for the poor smucks who get caught.
The Clinton Library.
Hey that $6 billion that disappeared from DOJ while she was SECR of State could be laundered quite easily as a book company purchase, just saying...imho. How much is each book? Hardbacks can sell for as much as $20-30 ea and paperbacks $7-15 ea, and that times 1 million copies=Clean money? or not.
“AT this point what difference does it make?”
So true.
Whatever would Mrs. Bill Clinton do if Sean Smith’s Mother, or any other Mother of those that Hilly left to be murdered in Benghazi, were standing in line waiting their turn for Hilly to write an endearing note in their copies of Hilly’s book?
Sounds as honest and compelling as the great “Reflections of a Public Man”. Bob
Who is her ghostwriter this time? Anybody know?
