Is it important for candidates to release their tax returns?
Do you feel you know more about Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton from their tax returns?

2. Yes. Bill received $15 million from Ron Burkle.
Can we get the 2007 return? Can we find out why Bill made this money?

3. A couple of months ago it was very important for Hillary Clinton to release her taxes.

A lot of people were in a frenzy speculating about the nefarious acts that she was hiding by delaying the release of her tax returns.

It was is quite amusing.

4. It is very important for our public servants to be completely transparent.
All of the Senate and House, the Cabinet, everyone. We need to see where the money is going and coming from.

5. Of course. We have to be sure their money is coming from the proper sources
and they paid the proper amount of tax.

Did you hear that McBush released his tax returns but not his wife's? He's made ANOTHER commercial for us!
