    Living in a nursing home is still living (I guess). The fact remains, wimmenfolk have a significantly longer life expectancy.

    I'm always still in trouble again

      Yeah, but seeing that, I often tell people I'm not nearly as concerned about dying as I am "living too long". It just seems like so many of those women are "living too long".

        How is that relevant to the belief Hillary may have health problems, and how is that belief as far-fetched as the media is making it out to be?

          You're looking at the end of the exchange. Try looking at the start -- post #27.

            I looked at your initial response to me, but CP already answered the question. Just because women live longer doesn't mean they don't experience more health issues; they do. So then I naturally wondered why you kept harping on women living longer. How is that relevant to whether Hillary has health issues or not?

              Low energy response!!

              We know quite a bit of medical history of Hillary, and that she has risk factors e.g. bleeding out after minor fall! And eminent doctors have serious concerns!!!

              Spin, libs, spin!!
              Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.

                So, perhaps, an attempt to look at the actual facts in the situation?

                The Internet is awash with rumors about Hillary Clinton's health, but there is one medical condition she is actually known to have.

                That is hypothyroidism, a condition affecting about 10 million Americans in which the thyroid is underactive, resulting in a variety of symptoms including fatigue, weakness and weight gain.

                For most patients, the symptoms can be significantly reduced or eliminated with the use of hormone therapy. Clinton is being treated with a medication called Armour Thyroid, according to her doctor, who has issued a letter saying she's in "excellent" physical condition and is fit to serve as president.

                Yet Armour Thyroid is a less common medication used in patients with hypothyroidism, possibly indicating Clinton wasn't responding well to the conventional treatment.


                From what we actually know as fact...
                Clinton has hypothyroidism
                She is being treated with Armour Thyroid

                Are those facts in dispute?

                  Historically doctors have been concerned with the health of Kennedy and Roosevelt and other presidents with far worse and ominous conditions than Hillary. It is common to minimalize and indeed cover up health issues of candidates and siting presidents in the USA and other countries.

                  Her present physician has given her a clean bill of health.

                  Source: http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1990-05-06/features/9002070774_1_poor-richard-lucy-mercer-franklin-delano-roosevelt



                  Kennedy suffered from colitis, prostatitis, and a disorder called Addison's disease, which affects the body's ability to regulate blood sugar and sodium. He also had osteoporosis of the lower back, causing pain so severe that he was unable to perform simple tasks such as reaching across his desk to pull papers forward, or pulling the shoe and sock onto his left foot, Dallek said.

                  Taking Drugs During Crises

                  To fight the pain, Kennedy took as many as 12 medications at once, taking more during times of stress.

                    And other physicians question the details of the report. They don't need to examine her personally to question curious details of that report.

                      For the sarcastically impaired the following is said in jest

                      Well, yeah, but how many people do you know who got a "clean bill of health" from their doctor, only to die the next day of a massive heart attack! That's all the more reason to be skeptical!!!!

                        At present, without further information, I consider these opinions anecdotal.

                        I also seriously question Donald Trump's mental health based on his erratic public behavior.

                            No, but that does not make her unqualified to be president.

                              Nobody said it did! But other doctors look at the treatment that's being used, which indicates a more advanced condition than is being revealed....

                              Hmmmm...... as opposed to you who AGREES with everybody who disagrees with you?

                                Anecdotal claim. I do not believe this would make Hillary unqualified any more than the severe health problems of other candidates and presidents in history like John f. Kennedy.

                                Hmmmm...... as opposed to you who AGREES with everybody who disagrees with you?
                                I did not question the fact that I indeed argue here on Tweb, and I am not selective about who I spare with.
