PRESIDENTIAL HEALTH: DO WE KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT OUR CANDIDATES?
AP ^ | July 17, 2016 | LAURAN NEERGAARD

Posted on 07/17/2016 8:27:32 AM PDT by upchuck

The nation is poised to elect one of its oldest presidents, and while age doesn't determine health, it begs the question: How much do we know - and should we know - about how physically fit Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are for the job?...

Trump at 70 would be months older than Ronald Reagan on his election day, and Clinton will have just turned 69.

Age aside, releasing at least some medical information is an election-season ritual.

Clinton has revealed more of this usually intensely private data than Trump. Each had their own doctor write a letter last year attesting they're in excellent health. Clinton's was nearly two pages and included standard lab test results. Trump's was four paragraphs with few details.

Reports have, rightly or wrongly, indicated that Hillary is in poor health. She does lack energy, needs long breaks, has coughing fits, apparently had a serious concussion.

There are also questions regarding her mental health, her inability to control her temper - revealed in "Crisis of Character" among other sources, her being a coward and frightened to face reporters who are not dedicated to her.

PRESIDENTIAL HEALTH: DO WE KNOW ENOUGH ABOUT OUR CANDIDATES?

If Trump had any Red Flags, you can bet the so-called pundits would be talking around the clock and pushing him to step down as the candidate. Madam Benghazi, on the other hand, could be at death's door (comment REDACTED) and you'd never hear about it from the liberal press. When was the last time you heard the fact that Idiot Joe Biden has had a chunk of his [so-called] brain removed?

Is Huma going to be sleeping in the Presidential suite with her?


I get the impression that Huma is with Hillary a lot more than she is with her own husband and son.

You hate to think about it, but, I do question if Hillary will survive a four to eight year stretch of being president. Which in turn will hopefully make voters scrutizine her VP running mate that much more.

We know the camera can take a picture at the worst possible moment, but, I’ve seen many similar pictures of Hillary, similar to this one. She’s in a rage, she appears to be out of control, even possessed, in this pic. Something is not quite right about her.

“Obama is as healthy as a horse.” A proctologist would probably disagree.......

And what about that huge scar, where they removed his brain?

Trump: Older than Ronald Reagan.

Clinton: “just turned” 69.

No bias.

For being so young, clinton has one foot in the grave and one on a banana peel. Personal doc at her side 24/7. Can’t wake up. Coughing fits. Stroke. Wouldn’t release an honest medical record in any world.

Hillary’s worst health problem is psychological: she is a psychopath. That aside, agree with the health problems mentioned. Am adding my hunch that the coughing is a consequence of orally transmitted STD.
One reason I prefer a male in any elected place is the stamina required. This gal won’t hold up to the demands of the job.
