Biden Doctor Insists: Former VP ‘Has a Brain That Is Functioning’

Doc: Dem frontrunner definitely doesn't have brain damage

Something is happening behind the scenes within the Democratic Party. Former Vice President Joe Biden remains the prohibitive favorite to win the nomination, even as he continues to commit word gaffes with his mouth.

Many still consider Biden to be the most "electable" candidate, but some Democrats, including some of his own aides and supporters, are beginning to express doubts about the 76-year-old's intellectual capacity.

It would appear that the Democratic establishment, in its desperation to prevent Bernie Sanders from winning the nomination, is keen to develop a contingency plan in case Biden falters.

Team Biden is on the defensive, and has even wheeled out the former Veep's brain surgeon to reassure skeptics that he's totally fine and definitely doesn't have brain damage. It's not the most reassuring claim to have to make about a presidential candidate, but here we are. Politico reports:

The two brain aneurysms Biden suffered in 1988 were fully treated and he showed no signs of mental trouble as a result, said Dr. Neal Kassell, who performed the surgery on Biden three decades ago. Nor did Biden suffer any brain damage that could come back to haunt him in old age, Kassell said.

"He is every bit as sharp as he was 31 years ago. I haven’t seen any change," Kassell said. "I can tell you with absolute certainty that he had no brain damage, either from the hemorrhage or from the operations that he had. There was no damage whatsoever."

Kassell went on to say that he planned to vote for "the candidate who I am absolutely certain has a brain that is functioning. And that narrows it down exactly to one." It is assumed, but not entirely clear, that he was referring to Biden.

Nevertheless, Biden allies remain wary and are said to be considering a scaled-back campaign schedule in an effort to limit the candidate's gaffes, which risk undermining his new campaign slogan about the country's need for "strong, steady, stable leadership."

Elizabeth Harrington ✔ @LizRNC Biden's new slogan is he's "strong, steady, and stable"

Seriously

You could say the same thing about Einstein. It isn't necessarily good news.

Translation: He says that gibberish and gropes little girls all on his own volition. No excuses.

Backhanded...almost to the point of an acquaintance of mine had a heart transplant at 45 and went right back to the habits that basically caused the problem to begin with..smoking, drinking etc with his explanation being HE was 45 but he had a ‘new heart’..(He lasted about 15 years)

I used to say I was sane and had the ‘papers’ to prove it as I went through the standard psych tests for Submarine duty.
As I got older I realized the reason for the tests wasn’t to establish ones sanity, it was to see if one was ‘crazy’ enough to be able to stand being in a sunken steel tube for long periods of time, jump out of perfectly good airplanes, swim long distances with your body weight strapped to you etc etc etc... <: <: <:

Well, that’s hard to disagree with.

Problem is.....

Biden’s Doc sez: “Joe’s brain is working fine. We definitely didn’t have to remove half of it and replace it with a monkey brain and some styrofoam pellets. Don’t be ridiculous.”

Sounds like how the doctor describes your pulse after you are recovering from an emergency...

Any doctor who would publicly betray patient privacy (which is illegal, by the way) is not a doctor I’m going to pay any attention to.

It sounds like he's saying the other Dem candidates don't have a functioning brain.
