Sen. Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign has canceled all appearances and events until further notice following a procedure for an artery blockage.

In a statement Wednesday, the senator’s adviser Jeff Weaver said Sanders “experienced some chest discomfort” during a Tuesday event. Testing found a “blockage in one artery,” and Sanders had two stents inserted, Weaver said.

“Sen. Sanders is conversing and in good spirits. He will be resting up over the next few days,” Weaver said. “We are canceling his events and appearances until further notice, and we will continue to provide appropriate updates.”

Sanders, 78, is running for the Democratic presidential nomination for the second time.

This is breaking news. Please check back for updates.

If I were his campaign staff, I’d make a complete list of every nurse and doctor actually allowed in the hospital wing where he is. I can just imagine some person acting as a doctor or nurse going into his room and injecting him with some drug or poison. And that person would likely be working for Felonia Von Pantsuit. Bye bye Bernie.

The great American Healthcare System in action.

The same Healthcare System Bernie and his Leftist Compadres want to destroy.

I guess Bernie didn’t have to sit in the Emergency Room Waiting Room too long to be taken care of.

I wonder why he didn’t board a Planet Destroying Airplane for Cuba to get this done?

It sounds like commie bernie might just “drop out” of the race no matter what anyone says or does. He might just “drop out” of the human race.

Under Bernie care one would have to wait about 3 years in line for some stents.

Move it on over, Bernie coming thru.

Sanders wants you to die waiting for a doctor.

Hillary will NOT be the nominee.

The Dem Party is now in the control of young Socialists.
They LOATHE her almost as much as we do.

- She’s too corrupt (i.e. she screwed Bernie)
- She’s too “corporate”.
- She blew-off Wisconsin and thus is actually responsible for Bad Orange Man being POTUS.

They aren’t gonna let her. No way, no how.

But there are SO many varieties of stents to choose from.
Really the society could get by with one or two...

Thanks for those corrections, so, okay, Lamm tells Bernie “he has a duty to die” and thanks to Ezekiel Emanuel, who tells him “his time is up!”

This after receiving an email from Hillary saying....BTW.....You’re scheduled for heart surgery this afternoon.

Now that's funny right there, I don't care who you are.

I thought he was having a heart installed but guess not.

He has collected enough money now to live a long time so he can drop out.

A socialist with a heart? Too bad there aren’t any brains to go along with that heart.

Bernie, I understand they have a wonderful all socialist healthcare system in Venezuela. You should go there.
