Or have you heard of a newly-elected president being refused access to the most-sensitive of classified materials due to a failure to pass a background investigation? Of course not. It doesn't happen. In fact, I suspect that I went through a more thorough background investigation to become an Air Force officer than Clinton, Obama or any other senior elected official did. Donna,

Have you ever heard of a candidate, elected by the people, not being allowed to take the oath of office? Or have you heard of a newly-elected president being refused access to the most-sensitive of classified materials due to a failure to pass a background investigation? Of course not. It doesn’t happen.

In fact, I suspect that I went through a more thorough background investigation to become an Air Force officer than Clinton, Obama or any other senior elected official did.
