The Marines would never take a man who had no use of his legs and had to be pushed in a wheel chair (FDR) either. By the time JFK was president, his back was so bad, he would be in agony for days. A number of presidents had ailments that would have made them unfit for Marine Corp service.

Physical ailments are one thing.

Mental or emotional ailments are an entirely different kettle of fish.

As I said, I an unsure where Migraines (if frequent and severe) fall on the spectrum, but this IS an issue.
