A recent poll indicates that nearly three-fourths of the medical professionals surveyed — 70.98 percent — believe that Hillary Clinton’s health concerns are “serious,” and “could be disqualifying for the position of president of the U.S.”

The poll was conducted by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons and its results were released Friday.

Over 91 percent of the respondents were aware that questions have been raised about the former secretary of State’ health.

Over 81 percent were aware that she’d suffered from a concussion, 58.8 percent knew she’d suffered from cerebral sinus thrombosis and 52.8 percent were aware that Clinton had deep venous thrombosis.

Nearly 73 percent of the physicians surveyed said that any one of those three conditions would influence his or her vote in a presidential race.

Exactly 66 percent of the doctors surveyed believed that a physician has a duty to make his concerns about a candidate’s fitness to serve in office for health reasons public.

Finally, 78.5 percent of the responding physicians believed that the media is not placing enough emphasis on Clinton’s health concerns in coverage of the candidate.

Clinton has suffered from fits of coughing since at least 2008, the latest during an address she made at a Labor Day campaign stop.

I was not a big fan of McCain's age/health being made a political issue... after all, Palin was there, but I have always heard, all is fair in Politics and War, So, what was good for the gander, then, should be good for the goose, now. Really hoping hers is cooked in 60 days!

The actual report itself gives the numbers, as well as percentages, might should have just linked straight to it and avoided the commentary from the other site??

AAPS Survey

If you look at all the choices of answers they had, the low 250 number somehow did not seem as important to me, as it initially did when I read your comment, they had plenty of outs.

I would like to know what sort of medical background they had probably, i.e. hoping not all a bunch of dermatologists, podiatrists and pediatricians, but hey, glad they participated! Don't think it can hurt our cause...

Proctologists would be closer to the mark.

“250 doctors polled.
Is the size of the sample worth the effort ?”

“what if they are all podiatrists ?”

They were most likely psychiatrists!!!
