Hillary's Health Concerns Serious, Say Most Doctors Polled by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS)
TUCSON, Ariz., Sept. 8, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Concerns about Hillary Clinton's health are "serious-could be disqualifying for the position of President of the U.S.," say nearly 71% of 250 physicians responding to an informal internet survey by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS). About 20% said concerns were "likely overblown, but should be addressed as by full release of medical records." Only 2.7% responded that they were "just a political attack; I have confidence in the letter from her physician and see no cause for concern."

While more than 81% were aware of her history of a concussion, only 59% were aware of the cerebral sinus thrombosis, and 52% of the history of deep venous thrombosis.

More than 78% said the health concerns had received "not enough emphasis" in the media, and only 2.7% that there had been "too much emphasis."

Nearly two-thirds said that a physician who had a concern about a candidate's fitness to serve for health reasons should "make the concerns known to the public." Only 11% said a physician should "keep silent unless he had personally examined the patient," and 10% that the candidate's health was "off limits for public discussion."

Eighty-eight respondents submitted comments. One said that "the public interest will ALWAYS override either privacy rights or rights of self-determination in the case of a presidential candidate." Another mentioned Clinton's "so called loss of memory claimed during her FBI questioning about her email server." Beyond the specific questions, one remarked that "I think that the candidate should be honest with the public about his/her health!" The history of the concussion was concerning: "The public must watch the movie Concussion to realize that such an injury does affect thought process."

A poll of 833 randomly selected registered voters by Gravis Marketing showed that nearly half (49%) were not aware of the "well documented major health issues that Hillary Clinton has." Nearly three-fourths (74%) were unaware of Bill Clinton's statement that Hillary suffered a "terrible" concussion requiring "six months of very serious work to get over." The majority (57%) thought that candidates should release their medical records.

"Both physicians and other voters think that health concerns are relevant when choosing a presidential candidate," states AAPS executive director Jane M. Orient, M.D. "However, more than 40% of physician respondents were unaware of the cerebral sinus thrombosis, and the vast majority of voters were not aware of all of Clinton's problems or their potential serious long-term implications for cognitive function."

The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons (AAPS) is a national organization representing physicians in virtually all specialties and every state. Founded in 1943, AAPS has the motto "omnia pro aegroto," which means "all for the patient."

Watch the brain-dead libtards dismiss this in some twisted, tortured way.

Spin, libtards, spin!

I don't have any medical or mental training.
I do know that Dem & Rep voters have lost their simple minds.
The evidence is plentiful. Look who they nominate.
Those that didn't support the two idiot nominees will probably vote for
their party's nominee.

american lies bleeding in my hands.

You fucking killers!

Who wouldn't agree that knowing someone in their late 60s becoming president is healthy is important. I put it right up there, or even more important than seeing Trumps Tax returns.

ALT Truth says

Only 2.7% responded that they were "just a political attack; I have confidence in the letter from her physician and see no cause for concern."

Why wouldn't there be a choice that says simply, "I have confidence in the the letter from her physician?" Instead, you have to agree to all three ?

Interesting survey.

I find it refreshing that you are listening to the council of experts. Now, what percent of scientists thing that global warming is happening and is caused by human activity? Come on, give us all the truth - not just the cherry picked set that you collect on rightie blogs. Or, at the least, change your screen-name to HalfTruth.

Is that the face of Hillary Clinton or an elephant's ass?

The other 29 percent of doctors polled said that IHLlary needs to smoke more, like Obama, so they can continue getting their Benson and Hedges subsidies.

I think they are all morally corrupt assholes who know that Trump will make us all give half our salaries over to the medical industrial complex...

In case you missed it, I'm making fun of the conservative fuck-tards who think that all scientists are morally corrupt assholes who are willing to destroy the economy for research-bux.

"While more than 81% were aware of her history of a concussion, only 59% were aware of the cerebral sinus thrombosis, and 52% of the history of deep venous thrombosis."

THIS SHOULD SET OFF ALARM BELLS, & IF THE MEDIA WERE TRULY IMPARTIAL (HA!), THE MEDIA WOULD EMPHASIZE THE NEED FOR ASSURANCES OF CURRENT HEALTH FROM ANY CANDIDATE WITH ANY HISTORY OF 'CEREBRAL SINUS THROMBOSIS OR DEEP VENOUS THROMBOSIS."

In all seriousness, I think that Dick Cheney has proved that with enough medical help, even a heartless stroke victim can be kept alive indefinitely and Reagan is proof that even with Alzheimers, a president can be held on a pedestal and idolized for decades by brain-dead followers. Paul Ryan is going to give us all Zika and he has no medical excuse. Trump just wants to share his STDs with America.

YesYNot loves his red herring.

This is about a Presidential, not Vice Presidential, candidate.

This is about CEREBRAL SINUS THROMBOSIS and DEEP VENOUS THROMBOSIS regarding Hillary Clinton.

Quit talking out your disingenuous asshole, YesYNot!

Dick Cheney had his dick replaced by a roto rooter claw to sodomize George W. Bush Jr. while George squealed "Momeeeee!".

I'll give my asshole a good talking to and staunch the follow of disingenuous farts when you change your screen name to HalfTruth.
