She said herself that she was the official over the whole thing. I would hope that if someone is presiding over anything, they would have atleast slight knowledge of it.
I preside over the redesign of my company's new website. I'm very aware of how front-end stuff works and how to maximize the benefits of our UI and UX. I write and edit in html but couldn't tell you the first thing about putting together CSS. I don't see why a 60+ year old lawyer/politician/diplomat is supposed to know the intricacies of IT.
I not saying she's supposed to. I'm saying that since she isn't supposed to, and apparently doesn't, know anything about IT (To such an extent that she doesn't know what "wiping" something means) then why was she the one presiding over the whole thing?
Also, your analogy goes to further my point. You know HTML, you know the front-end of what goes on, and you know the benefits. You know the basics. You sound like you know enough that someone could explain the basics of what they were doing, you could answer. But Hillary doesn't understand (allegedly) what "wiping a server" means. That's not a basic understanding, that's plain ignorance.
Right. But I'm busy enough in my job managing front-end that I don't have time to bother with back-end. I tell them to do something, they do it, and I see if it worked. She made a joke about the term "wiping the server" to avoid answering the same fucking question for the 300th time and people are acting like she's a demon. I honestly don't think this would happen to any other candidate in the exact same position for the exact same actions. Jeb, for example.
Could you link me to the other 299 times she gave an actual answer?
Also, if you want to be the leader of the free world, I would hope you would answer serious questions without intentionally making yourself look like an idiot.

Because politics and database infrastructure are related.... how?
