So sounds like you agree with me that Hillary did indeed break the law but you argument is that we need to understand "realpolitik" on why she can not be prosec

  Yes, completely agree with your assessment of what did not happen and should have happened. Rule of Law ultimately breaks down if those empowered to enforce and adjudicate it do not do their jobs. If people want a better US government, they need to take a hard look at why the last several impeachments occurred and the circumstances in which they didn't, and make some harder decisions about their elected Congressional officials than they have in my lifetime. Congress has a 20% approval rating, but 81% of the House of Representatives is on their second or later term. (The only quibble I have with your comment: did Hillary break the law? Well, Congress is judge and jury on that question, and since they never even tried to adjudicate it, the question "did she break the law" depends on one's philosophical position on the question of innocence-until-guilt-proven. I think you and I have laid out the argument and counter-argument that would have been made in a Congressional impeachment trial that should have happened and did not).
