The Democratic nominee dogged by rumors of her deteriorating health after footage emerged of her coughing and gasping for air for nearly five minutes and suffering what seems like a seizure had another ‘medical episode’ on Sunday.
Hillary Clinton nearly collapsed on Sunday morning abruptly being swept away from a Ground Zero ceremony to commemorate the 15th anniversary of 9/11 with a half dozen staffers holding her up to prevent her from slamming head first into the pavement as she was dragged into a black van.
The video, posted on Twitter, shows the former Secretary of State wobbling back and forth almost uncontrollably reminiscent of the notorious seizure footage in which Hillary Clinton suffered uncontrolled spasms for 30 seconds in front of a pool of press reporters, leading to a horrified look on one AP journalist’s face, before regaining her wits and being shuffled off by staffers – an incident that has gone viral, but went unreported at the time.
Failing to stay on two feet at the 9/11 memorial service will be hard for the Clinton campaign to downplay coming at a time when Democrats are already clamoring for Bernie Sanders to come back into the fold after Hillary’s statements to wealthy donors discarding millions of Americans as “irredeemable” and what she calls a "basket of deplorables" highlighting what her opponents say is her elitist views. It now raises the question whether Democrats have a Plan B should Clinton be unable to fulfill her campaign duties with Hillary’s running mate Tim Kaine likely lacking the star power necessary to fend off the insurgent bid of bombastic billionaire Donald Trump.
Many Americans are also left to ask whether a vote for Hillary Clinton may ultimately be a decision to make the relatively unknown Kaine the nation’s Commander-in-Chief. Highlighting the chaos in Democratic Party circles is a statement by Bakari Sellers, a Hillary Clinton surrogate and CNN political contributor who openly said "Does she need to prove more [medical records]? That is a legitimate question to ask."
Political reporter for Time Magazine reports that the former Secretary of State will be temporarily removing herself from the campaign trail in light of the most recent incident and returning home to Chappaqua after being rushed to her daughter Chelsea’s apartment following the incident.
Although Clinton emerged saying that she "feels great" and her campaign has gone into damage control mode suggesting that the incident was merely a bout of dehydration, Hillary may soon be fending off calls by her own party to drop out of the race leaving the door wide open for either Bernie Sanders or Joe Biden to replace her. Democratic Party bylaws stipulate that in the event that a presidential nominee drops out due to health related or other reasons, a special meeting would be called by the chairperson to find a proper replacement. It is also possible that Congress could move to delay Election Day in the event that the decision occurs too close to November 8. To date, a nominee for a major party has never withdrawn or died prior to an American election with the closest historical corollary being Vice President James Sherman who died of kidney disease six days before the 1912 election – his name remained on the ballot and the election proceeded. Watching the video below, it is hard to know whether or not the Democratic nominee may be the first to bow out in history.

picture of BARFING goes here:
Yes but I think maybe they will HAVE to replace her...
You are right on target.
Hillary, her campaign and the dems loses any accomodation or fairness because they have lied about a known condition for two and a half years. Why? Why lie to her own party? Avarice? Ego and criminal hubris? Don’t the Clintons own the word Hubris?
I think that would make the whole think look messier and more amateur hour.
I think we will start seeing a steady diet of news articles about disabled and ill presidents, focusing on everyone’s favorite cripple, FDR, and everyone’s favorite STD patient, JFK.
Political parties have no constitutional standing. They are private organizations. They don’t exist as far as the Constitution is concerned. Whatever the bylaws of the political organization says will be what is followed. In modern times the Rats have had to replace a nominated candidate before; their Veep nominee (Thomas Eggleston) who ran with McGovern back in 1976. He had been treated for a “nervous breakdown” (or so they said at the time!) and was pulled from the ticket. If I remember this right he was replaced by Sargent Shriver. Now it’s the top of the ticket & Hellary Clinton, I just don’t see it happening. Unless she isn’t breathing or in a coma.
LOL!
if that happens it won’t help HilLiary
just the opposite methinks
we will see, I obviously do not know...
but Trump’s people had better be ready to campaign against her VP guy what’s his name............just in case
in fact, it might help Trump’s campaign if he started including criticisms of her VP guy NOW.... a tactful way of alerting the voters that HilLiary may not last long
An individual voter in a given state votes for Electors, who vote for the President and Vice President... No need to delay any election
[No, it’ll have to be Warren.]
I always thought they’d pull ELIZABETH WARREN out of the wigwam as the Dem candidate for POTUS.
It’s either Moochelle or Pocahontas. Joe Bite-Me or Tim Kaine. Perhaps Feel the Bern.
Well, yeah but would they actually pull him out of the mothballs? I can’t see it.
“Betcha she’s got a medical suite in Chappaqua that would put menu small hospitals to shame. Probably in Chelsea’s guest room too.”
The best Haitian relief funds can buy.
Great insights and advice!
They kno Kerry’s a loser. They want a winner. They’ll go with a complete unknown like Obammy again before they nominate Kerry or fake Injun Squaw. Bernie’s not soros’s fave because he won’t take orders. But Soros and the enmy Moslem money could accept Bernie on their shared politics
Mika is probably in meltdown, she didn’t even want to show COUGHING Hillary....THIS will make her go over the edge!
Question: If Hillary died the night before the election and she won the vote for the Oval office, would Kaine be the Pres?
Yes.
Look closely at Hillary’s right shoe/cankle. Something falls to the ground. Did it come out her pantsuit? Did the bald guy on her right side drop a cap, or lid from the injector pen?
I think liberals like Clintons cannot apreciate any food other than a big mac and Crispy Cream. Anything outside of that and it violates their safe space
