2.8 million dollars is more than a large number of Americans will ever make in their lifetime. Yes, I still think she has a lot of sway and influence without holding office. Obama probably does too and he's not in office anymore, so why wouldn't Hillary?

Actually our generation is on track to make that much money, a million isn't worth much anymore over all these years when it'll only buy you a nice house in a big city ... (Inflation and rising wages will make millionaires more trivial.) 

It's even easier to campaign these days if you can get on the media like Donald Trump did ... (By now there is not a single person in America who doesn't know of Trump so he won't need to campaign much when running for re-election.) 

Both Obama and Hillary are nobodies when you don't put value in the past. They don't have ANY sort of power at the executive, legislative, judicial, state, or local level ... (That's right their lower than mayors you see for the cities!) 

Yeah, so the amount Lincoln spent will have to be re-adjusted again, it's not like we'd use a modern conversion for a future comparison. And it end up being that way per capita, but the median will probably end up being a lot lower than that due to huge income inequality.

Maybe mayors have more power than Obama and Clinton in theory, but in practice it's not like the mayor of Flat Rock, Michigan is going to have the same influence as Obama.
