Hillary Clinton\u2019s refusal to release transcripts of her paid speeches to major banks dogged her candidacy during the primary, when her opponent\u00a0Bernie Sanders<\/a> used the issue to paint her as too close to Wall Street.<\/p>\n

Now excerpts from some of those speeches have emerged in a hacked email<\/a>\u00a0released by WikiLeaks on Friday. The January email, which was sent by the Clinton campaign’s research director to\u00a0campaign chairman John Podesta<\/a>\u00a0and other campaign officials, was first noticed by Buzzfeed.<\/p>\n

The excerpts were referred to as \u201cflags\u201d compiled by the Henry Walker Agency, the speaker\u2019s bureau that represented Clinton, suggesting staff was keeping tabs on remarks that may be controversial down the line.<\/p>\n

One comment in particular could prove problematic in an election in which\u00a0immigration and international trade have been flashpoints.<\/p>\n

In a 2013 speech to a Brazilian bank, Clinton said \u201cmy dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders.\u201d She goes on to say that she wants \u201cenergy that is as green and sustainable as we can get it, powering growth and opportunity for every person in the hemisphere.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a 2014 speech to Goldman Sachs and BlackRock, she also ruminated about her connection to the middle class.<\/p>\n

Two years before Sanders and Donald Trump electrified voters with complaints about a \u201crigged\u201d system, Clinton said \u201cI do think there is a growing sense of anxiety and even anger in the country over the feeling that the game is rigged.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said she didn\u2019t have that concern during her \u201csolid middle class upbringing.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m kind of far removed because the life I\u2019ve lived and the economic, you know, fortunes that my husband I now enjoy, but I haven\u2019t forgotten it,\u201d Clinton said.<\/p>\n

It’s unclear how WikiLeaks obtained the email. But U.S. officials have accused hackers backed by the Russian government<\/a> of trying to meddle in this year’s election.<\/p>\n

“We are not going to confirm the authenticity of stolen documents released by Julian Assange,” the head of WikiLeaks, “who has made no secret of his desire to damage Hillary Clinton,” said campaign spokesman Glen Caplin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
