Good point. Also, the Secretary of State has "original classification authority." Individuals with OCA are entrusted to determine when material should be considered and handled as classified. They do not need to "derive" classification because information comes from other classified sources.

In other words, as SoS Hillary was supposed to know and recognize that information should be classified, even determine if new information coming in should be marked classified. She has no excuse, absolutely none. If she is incapable of making that determination as SoS then why in the {expletive} should anyone trust her to make such determinations at the head of the Executive Branch - where all classification authority comes from.

In other words, by saying "It wasn't marked and I didn't know." is a confession by Hillary that she is unfit for the duties of the office of President. Thanks Hillary, you just disqualified yourself.

Absolutely. All cabinet members hold OCA for their respective offices. Your points are acutley poignant and a specific reason why she is nowhere qualified for POTUS. I read a book when Clinton first took office called “Unlimited Access” that went point-by-point as to why neither Bill nor Hillary should ever be allowed to cross the threshold at the White House, let alone serve in office.
