Sanders medical history reveals ‘very good health’
Sanders only appears at the end of the ad to approve the message. In the past, Sanders has said that his best mile time clocked in at 4:37 – achieved when he was a junior in high school.
The doctor’s note was slightly less detailed than the note the Clinton campaign released last summer. The money, Sanders has suggested, undercuts Clinton’s ability to push for the kind of Wall Street reforms needed to avoid a repeat of activities that contributed to the 2008 financial crisis – a notion she vigorously disputes.
What the insider Washington Democratic establishment fails to understand is that the issues Sanders raises have great appeal to the broad nation: a free public college education paid for through a Wall Street transaction tax; an increase in Social Security payments (now frozen at least year’s rate for the new year); breaking up big banks and re-instituting reforms initiated by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt; dramatic reforms of the criminal justice system. Both Clinton and O’Malley said they would attend if all the candidates agreed, despite risking the ire of the Democratic National Committee, which has forbidden candidates from taking part in unsanctioned encounters.
Sanders had said he would release his records before the Iowa caucus.
“I don’t want my integrity and honestly being impugned”.
Polls show a tight race between Clinton and Sanders in Iowa. Traveling by bus through Iowa, the senator predicted a win in Iowa if the turnout was large but warned if not, “we’re going to be struggling”.
The latest talk over the debate schedule comes days before the Iowa caucuses, which are Monday. “Sanders has called for more debates”, the lawmaker’s campaign manager, Jeff Weaver, said in a statement. He has also had surgery to fix hernias and excise a vocal cord cyst, the letter said.
If Sanders takes the White House, he would be 75 upon inauguration and become the oldest president elected in US history, according to USA Today.
Reporter: You say you are in very good health.
Bardack, however, concluded in her July letter that Clinton, now 68 years old, was in “excellent physical condition and fit to serve as president of the United States”.
Sanders’ doctor, Brian P. Monahan, MD, also included that his patient has been treated for “gout, hypercholesterolemia, diverticulitis, hypothyroidism, lumbar strain”, and “a complete removal of superficial skin tumors”.
