Reuters: Candidates' passports snooped 22 March

The State department is investigating the incidents and has contacted the Justice Department as a precaution in case any laws were broken. Officials said the workers appeared to have acted independently and without any political motive. The incident is an embarrassment to the Bush administration and revived memories of the controversy that erupted in 1992 when State Department officials searched former President Bill Clinton's passport and citizenship files while he was still a Democratic presidential candidate. Lindsay Claiborn reports.
