Oh, he also said his health was more important than any campaign. That is not what voters want to hear. Especially not in wartime. They want to hear that the candidate believes with all his heart he is the best man in the country for the job - the only one that can really do it well, and that he will sacrifice himself to get it and do it as best he can. It could also be spun to imply his health is not good. That was a very bad slip and if he is prone to those he will get chewed up over them.

I think you misinterpreted his meaning. If he runs, or more accurately - announces - it will mean that his health, in his mind and his doctor's, is NOT an issue. And I guess you also missed the part about something happening out there, something special, and that he thinks he can answer it.
