Presumptive GOP presidential candidate Jeb Bush criticized Hillary Clinton for using a personal e-mail account while acting as secretary of State, in an interview with Radio Iowa on Friday.

"For security purposes, you need to be behind a firewall that recognizes the world for what it is and it's a dangerous world and security would mean that you couldn't have a private server," Bush said. "It's a little baffling, to be honest with you, that didn't come up in Secretary Clinton's thought process."
