What's the PLOT???

Okay, here’s the challenge:
Devise a plot that explains why someone would violate a primary directive of the public office they hold, when they are contemplating a run for the White House within the next eight years.
   Sound familiar? I’ve been mulling it over all day, ever since I watched the Sunday morning talking heads discussing the state of affairs in our nation’s capitol. I think I have finally been convinced that Hillary Clinton is lying about the email. This hurts. I was a huge Hilary Clinton fan and a huge supporter of Bill Clinton. It didn’t particularly bother me if Bill was having a dalliance with an intern. What business was it of mine? He’s not my husband. We all know he’s not the first President to play around. So what? What got me was he lied about it. That changed him in my eyes. It made him seem weak and a bit silly. However, it still doesn’t change the fact that I think he will be remembered as one of the great Presidents.
   But back to my challenge, which begs the question: Why? Why, Mrs. Clinton, would you chose to break one of the basic rules of your public office, and then decide to run for President? You are a Washington veteran. You must have known this would come out. You and your husband have been working on this White House thing since Yale. I want to know why it happened. If there’s a good explanation, let’s hear it.
   I’m angry at Hillary. I think she had a good chance of being elected and I thought she would make a good President, but she has disillusioned me by not being forthcoming, and she has given her opponents the ammunition they need to sink her campaign. I’m disappointed. I really wanted her to run. Part of me is certain that women should be running things in this country, and I was hoping we were about to get a good one to do it, but I’ll be amazed if she even gets the nomination, let alone gets elected.

    I’m pretty sure that if Joe Biden decides to run, I’ll be voting for him.
