Asked by NBC’s Andrea Mitchell on Friday whether anyone in her inner circle ever expressed concern about the setup, Clinton responded, “I was not thinking a lot when I got in.”
“There was so much work to be done,” Clinton continued. “We had so many problems around the world. I didn’t really stop and think — what — what kind of e-mail system will there be?”So, as to why she needed a server, she said the didn't want to have to carry around two devices. (because you have to use one device per e-mail account?) Now she says she was too busy to give her new e-mail server much thought. (because it would be too complicated to use the State Department system that was already in place and had had an experienced IT department on call and ready to help her?)
When she took the job she got an existing office, a desk, a chair, a computer, a door, a coffee maker, etc. etc., and an e-mail address. Changing to her own server made things more complicated, not less.

They're right. OBumbler was elected twice.
It's perfectly correct for a government official to have a private account for personal e-mails. In fact, it's required if your going to be involved in a political campaign - you MUST keep that stuff off the government servers. BUT you also MUST keep it separate from your government work e-mails, and Hillary's private server sure didn't meet that requirement. When she commingled government, personal, and partisan political e-mails, she made them all government property, as well as breaking security worse than Mr. classified-documents-in-my-pants Sandy Berger.
It's been suggested that she's just plain stupid (as well as arrogant and entitled), and I can't think of a better explanation for her private server.
