Did he drink anything beforehand?

Noting that the cause of Andrew Breitbart’s unexpected death yesterday was being examined by the Los Angeles County Coroner’s office, talk-radio host Michael Savage raised the question of whether the conservative media powerhouse – who recently announced he had videos that could politically damage President Obama – was murdered.
On his top-rated show today, Savage played an audio clip of Breitbart telling an audience at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington last month that he had obtained videos that shed light on Obama’s ties to radicals in the early 1980s who helped propel him to the presidency.
“Maybe my overly active imagination kicked into overdrive,” Savage told his listeners of his decision to raise the question. “But you heard what Breitbart said – he has videos … we’re going to vet the president.”

...”Why would the question be stupid? Given Andrew’s profession and rather sudden death IMHO all events up to and surrounding his death should be looked at very closely”...
I totally agree with you..I am amazed that anyone who knew of Andrew and his work would not have thought his death very strange from the get-go. Even if he had heart problems, to drop dead like he did is unusual. Didn’t Andrew receive vicious death threats all the time?
I was looking at some Brietbart youtube videos yesterday, and came across this one. He’s talking to somebody about Libertarians, and Brietbart is sweating profusely on his forehead/face.
From experience with people I’ve known who had heart attacks, a lot of them had profuse sweating with their heart problems.
Here’s the vid...see for yourself:

...”a sudden death like this needs to be looked into”...
And, by people who do not have strong political motives.
I am surprised that only hours after Andrew died, the major media, FOX included, so quickly picked up the words, “died of natural causes,” before anything could be determined for certain. One has to wonder...
And another report made it sound as it he was at home and was having difficulty breathing.
Which of these is correct, or is there another story?
Hey...that’s been my taggy forever!
I heard Sean Hannity stating on the radio, that Breitbart had a history of heart problems. Sean Hannity is a friend of the Breibart family.
Quincy would sort this out after a few rounds of arguing with his boss, the police, and some bureaucrat/person in charge.

As I had posted earlier in today’s Savage thread:
Certainly the first thing that I thought when I heard about Andrew’s death due to “natural causes” was a hit by a wet work specialist. While its not completely out of the ordinary for a guy in his 40s to have a heart attack it seems pretty unlikely in this case.
Like sushiman pointed out - Richard “The Iceman” Kuklinksi used to inject some of his targets with cyanide or put it in their food. It mimics the appearance of a heart attack. Certain foods hide the taste of it very easily. After a few days you can’t find cyanide in a body. That is one reason it is such a good murder weapon. It breaks apart into carbon and nitrogen. The distinctive order of bitter almonds is only noticeable on a fresh body; it is lost as the body decomposes and hardly any medical examiner checks for it. It is a standby of the old KGB and I’ve read plenty of books on mob cleaners using it as well.
Just sayin’...
Yes, I believe that he was... and the heart thing is how those that kill for power plant cover stories.

Compromised .
He may have been foolish to eat with the devil
I think they meant “no apparent cause”
Much too late for that. There are several of these threads floating around.
Yes, they say he was sick and yes, stuff happens. It’s the whole March 1st timing that gives one pause.
At the very least, we should all be more than concerned that we can totally envision our government doing it. That is quite telling of the tyranny we're under.
The most surprising sentence in the article.
Right !
That question is all but stupid in that context.
All the explanations have to be scrutinized carefully.
Cancelling the question is , on the contrary, stupid or .....partisan propaganda
Honestly, when the reports of his death came out and the cause was “natural causes”, bells and whistles went off. Natural causes for a 43 year old man?
My schtick is not taking talk radion nutburgers and internet conspiricy kooks seriously. It's worked well.
Healthy 43, suddenly dying?
Healthy? I don’t know about that. He looked at least 10 years older than 43. He just turned 43 and I turn 43 in May and was SHOCKED that he was my age. I totally believe that he died of a heart attack. He was up 20 hours a day and I bet with his lifestyle, he probably ate a lot of fast food.
What are the odds of someone, who has apparently very damaging tapes of barack hussein obama, dying prematurely at age 43? Was it commonly known that Andrew had heart problems?
We will find out exactly how damaging those tapes are. If they are very damaging indeed, then I believe we have good reason to believe that Andrew was murdered.
This is Vince Foster all over again. Call me cynical but I don’t believe it for a minute that he just died of natural causes. Riiiiiiiiiiiiight.
Why would he be assassinated? I barely knew of him.
Rush has a huge impact and I could see that, but Breitbart had minimal impact.
let's not put blinders on either.
remember, it is not paranoia, if someone is out to silence you....

“I barely knew of him.”
For real? Your circle of information is quite limited then.
He didn’t grow up a conservative, he grew up a liberal ... Helped Huffington start the Post, then had a falling out and “converted to conservatism” went to work for Drudge.

I remember the Howard Stern show playing an audio clip of the doctor spelling his name for the record at the OJ trial. It went on forever.
Recall a couple of years ago when an anti Putin journalist was poisoned. The toxicology tests by the ME’s office will be of utmost importance.
True Naps, I’m sure he was constantly on the go. He was driven, had major dead lines to meet, plus a family to care for. He enjoyed it all, but it can catch up. However, I’m all for ruling out any other cause of death. Otherwise, mystery and the lack of investigation creates conspiracy stories. Best to get the truth and then everyone will know for sure.
I will repeat what I wrote last night. How many journalists have been killed in Russia in recent years? Now ask yourself, are our communists somehow more virtuous?
Perhaps confused with the reported death in his sleep of Davey Jones (ex Monkee)who died very recently.
He must not have owned an X5.
What can cause a sudden cardiac arrest? A gas, slow poison?
RC. I had my first heart attack at 37. If Andrew was diagnosed with heart issues and that included blockages, they probably would have done angioplasty or bypass. So this sounds like a major blood clot. Once you know you have a problem, you manage it.
I will be interested in the findings. For what’s it’s worth, I have had 5 HA, bypass and 18 angioplasty’s. 69 and going strong.
Prayers up for Andrew. God wrap his comfort around him.
Well, it is odd that Rush’s security detail called the bomb squad last night...
I think there is more than one talk show conservative paranoid ...
Which tells me...they don’t put it past the regime to pull such a thing. They may not come out and say it, but Rush’s little incident last night is actually very telling.
Perhaps. He’d write something, and on occasion I’d read it. That’s about the extent of Breitbart in my circle.
I’ve been on FR longer than most, I read it just about daily, I’m a voracious reader elsewhere of articles, I follow the news constantly, I’m retired military, I pastor a mainstream protestant church so keep up with an awful lot, I listen to Rush/Hannity and a few others, and I simply didn’t run across Breitbart that often.
Say what you want, but I don’t see any reason for assassinating him by some “power” group. I can see some leftwing nut murdering him perhaps, but that would be a lone hit job for some obscure reason and not an assassination.
It’s possible that he might have discovered the keys to the universe, and got whacked for figuring it out, but that’s pure tin-foil stuff that would make a great episode of X-Men or Star-Trek.
Is there any connection with Ayers and Andrew’s death.
This happened 41 years to the day that Andrew died, right about the start of March 1.
Is there any connections here to Bill Ayers?
March 1, 1971
A bomb explodes in the Capitol building in Washington, D.C., causing an estimated $300,000 in damage but hurting no one. A group calling itself the “Weather Underground” claimed credit for the bombing, which was done in protest of the ongoing U.S.-supported Laos invasion.

I’m all for ruling out any other cause of death.
I do agree with you on your entire post but especially this sentence. The only object really to the story I have is “assassinated”. I mean that is a bit over the top unless we have more evidence of this.
Charles Bronson (The Mechanic) making Keenan Wynn have a heart attack comes to mind.
I think everyone in the universe, if they didn’t know, now knows he had heart problems.
Otherwise, just because he had a heart condition doesn’t mean he could’ve been poisoned.
Here's your answer,,,,,,,CIA whistleblower......
I remember many years ago listening to G Gordon Liddy on his old radio show,and while discussing the death of J Edgar Hoover with a caller,the G Man said that the Gov possessed drugs which,when applied to a persons household items or toiletries,would produce a heart attack within 72 hrs.
