Sunday this week, in a memorial of the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, Hilary Clinton who was in attendance got up and left before it ended.
It is said that she was feeling overheated and while on the way out, she slumped. This has raised concerns about Hilary's health. Her doctor has now confirmed that she has pneumonia.
Hilary Clinton has long had health problems. It is rumoured to be part of the reasons for her resignation as secretary of state in 2013. She has also been spotted coughing during public speeches. She is now contesting for the presidency. This event has cast doubts on her assertion that she is medically fit for the presidency. If she couldn't stay longer on the job as secretary of state on health grounds, how certain can people be of her ability to occupy the US presidency? We all know its a tough job. It is a position which concerns not just the US but the entire world. We've seen how Barack Obama has transformed within 7 years of his tenure due to the stress of office. Can Hilary Clinton, with health challenges, withstand the stress?
This is playing into the hands of her major rival, Donald Trump, who frequently raises questions on her health status. Unfortunately, Trump being a very garrulous fellow, has not proved to be a better alternative. A lot of people see him as unfit for the presidency and he keeps proving them right by his comments. It seems the US electorate is torn between the devil and the deep blue sea. Both candidates may be the worst that have been produced in a long time. The only option is to choose the lesser evil.
