It all suggests a few mild physical disabilities disqualify you for the office. Shit, we better purge FDR from the list of Presidents!
Yeah, some days I can barely stand because of the neuropathy, but why should anyone give a shit.

I know I'm preaching to the choir, but a few things:
1. I think a candidate's health is a legitimate issue. If there is nothing that is going to keep them from doing the job, the issue should be settled.
2. The issue that has been created around Hillary's health is absolute bullshit. If some lunatic implies that Hillary is hiding a severe issue, hoping that it gains traction with people looking for a reason to not vote for her, and the media jumps on Hillary because she has walking pneumonia, they're fucking stupid. The only evidence that is relevant is evidence that shows she has a debilitating issue. Coughing, getting woozy when it's hot are
not news worthy events. But the media, by reporting the fuck out of that stuff,
legitimizes the initial bullshit which is based on absolutely nothing. If no one accused Hillary of having brain damage initially, her coughing or her having walking pneumonia are not campaign issues. It's a fucking joke.
3. Trump released a note from a quack that said he's in better shape than any candidate in the history of the country. Will he actually release the results of a real exam? Who the fuck knows? But at this point, people think Hillary is the one hiding something, while Trump skates. It makes zero sense.
