"provide administrative, financial, and technical support to the Soros foundations and also operate OSI initiatives, which address specific issues on a regional or network-wide basis, and other independent programs..." and... "The goal of the Soros foundations network throughout the world is to transform closed societies into open ones and to protect and expand the values of existing open societies. The concept of open society is, at its most fundamental level, based on the recognition that people act on imperfect knowledge and that no one is in possession of the ultimate truth." (quotes from soros.org in 2007-08). [Note: Soros used Karl Popper's definition of open society that Popper later refuted as invalid.]enter Soros' view of open society is a rebuke to all religious and political worldviews, especially the Christian worldview, which is echoed by the "community action" organizations that he supports from BlackLivesMatter to MoveOn.Org (a major Obama funder that illegally collected foreign money in 2008), Earthjustice and dozens more. These were outstanding "teachable" principles to the political-climbing nouveau influencers, the Clintons. Using any avenue necessary to shore up their financial requirements to make political inroads (not a cheap undertaking), the Clintons managed to increase their circle of 'friends' and clientele by tapping into the pool of international access seekers. Whereas Soros used hedge fund seed money sowed by mostly Arab investors (when the funds couldn't legally operate on American shores) to make inroads in Eastern Europe, Africa, South America, the Near East and the Orient, the Clintons developed a model of outsiders giving to their charity as an entrée to favorable U.S. political decision-making. Hillary and Bill Clinton's denial notwithstanding, their little system has garnered hundreds of millions of donation dollars that have translated into a minimum of philanthropic giving (from three to ten percent of total collections) outside of providing the Clintons lavish lifestyle. They were good students.

Luke 16 10 "One who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much, and one who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much. 11 If then you have not been faithful in the unrighteous wealth, who will entrust to you the true riches? 12 And if you have not been faithful in that which is another's, who will give you that which is your own? 13 No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money." ESVIn the context of Hillary Clinton, "you cannot serve the nation and money." It's called a conflict of interest. By trying to use money to fulfill what only God can supply, it leaves a person wanting more of it. The blight of politics--the cycle of "making" money to buy power to "make" more money -- is empty. Trusting in wealth and not the Lord leaves a person in a precarious position of depending on something that can abandon you (Proverbs 23:5) when God will not. There's nothing wrong with wealth if it is used to honor God. (Proverbs 3:9-19) Placing someone in the Oval Office who has proven that she will always serve personal gain above the national security with which she has been entrusted, is, in the colloquial, inviting the fox into the henhouse. Timothy 6:10 is plain: "the love of money is the root of all evil." So why would we vote for a woman whose craven need for cash has made her willingly lay bare all her nation's weaknesses for every enemy to exploit?
