Hillary Clinton, seen here in a file photo, said in a Facebook post Tuesday that if she had to do it over again, she would have fired an adviser accused of sexual harassment during the 2008 presidential campaign. (Nikki Kahn/The Washington Post)Hillary Clinton on Tuesday expressed regret for not having fired a senior adviser on her 2008 presidential campaign who was accused of repeatedly sexually harassing a young subordinate. “I very much understand the question I’m being asked as to why I let an employee on my 2008 campaign keep his job despite his inappropriate workplace behavior,” Clinton wrote. Burns Strider, shown in 2006, was accused of sexually harassing a subordinate when he was Hillary Clinton’s faith adviser during her 2008 presidential campaign. Among his other duties during Clinton’s 2008 campaign, Strider sent the candidate scripture readings every morning for months, according to the account in the Times.
