I’m in agreement that the people have a right to know about the President’s health. But if it was just a scare it’s just that and we don’t need to know.

FDR got away with being paralyzed for most of his time in office and most people didn’t know and nobody had a problem with that.

It’s not like the leftists cared about Clinton’s missing septum from cocaine use.

FDR was paralyzed during his entire time in office, in fact throughout most of his political career. He contracted polio in 1921 when he was 39 years old. He and a compliant media hid his condition pretty much until his death. The media has protected Democrats at least since Woodrow Wilson’s stroke while in office. By the way, Wilson’s illness probably started when he likely contracted the Spanish flu while attending the Versailles conference. There are pretty strong indications of this in the historical record.
