Whether some people like it or not, Hilary is the only person who can stop Trump from getting the keys to the Oval Office, something that doesn't bear thinking about.

It may not bear thinking about for you, but for millions of Americans the thought of 'that woman' in the White house strikes fear into their hearts.
I'm still in two minds as to whether this is a put up job for the sympathy vote or whether she really is ill. Lets see how quickly she recovers.
The problem is, if she is really ill then she cannot stand for the most powerful position in the World.

What the Media should be doing is looking into Trumps increasingly wild and unhinged utterances. But the Media will continue to concentrate of the lowest common denominator.
If Trump does get into the White House, he will be the first to do so after heaping praise on Russia and its Leader. You couldn't make it up.

YMB > I'm still in two minds as to whether this is a put up job for the sympathy vote or whether she really is ill.
Do you really think that she is going to risk faking illness when she is ahead in the polls? How many 'sympathy votes' do you consider she will achieve?
Trump's supporters will see this as a vulnerable time for Clinton and will seek to exploit every weakness possible about whether her health would stand the rigours of the Presidency.
Let's have some realism here,Trump will clutch at any straws he can to close the gap but he won't be clutching the thing that will elude him: the keys to the White House.

My take on "Hillary's Health" in the absence of hard facts and her personal medical notes.
1) Likely scenario: she has an allergic condition which is common and recently at the 9/11 commemoration, became dehydrated in the heat possible exaggerated by taking anti-histamine like drugs for her allergy.
So far......no big deal.
2) the "pneumonia" is not like you and me know it and probably is an X-ray comment associated with her allergy.
3) Thrombosis of a vein behind her ear. This is extremely rare and a big deal.....a very big deal. But seeing her condition one would have to say that this was...rumour....exceedingly unlikely to be true.
4) Concussion" she would have had multiple MRI scans and if significant would not be allowed to continue campaigning.
So...as commonest things occur commonest, it is my opinion that the health of Mrs Clinton is no big deal.
I am afraid mikey's tips for the top jobs will let him down once again as my money goes on Trump to be the next American President.

mikey; //Why do you constantly defend the ogre Trump ? Do you really think that he will make a good President ?// Probably - I don't have a crystal ball though.
'Hillary Clinton [health notwithstanding] is carrying more baggage than the Queen Mary and Trump will carpet-bomb the country in the run-up with a billion dollars of reminders of Benghazi (she slept while her ambassador was murdered), the televised apology to the world’s Muslims, the FBI director’s non-indictment indictment; the malodorous conflicts of the Clinton Foundation entwined with the Clinton State Department. Even Whitewater is due for a rerun. This is not Norman Rockwell’s or Walt Disney’s America, and it never was. American presidential politics is a jungle; the nominees are great beasts, but Donald Trump is larger and fiercer. In taking over a major US political party from the outside, he has done something that has never been done before, and he should win.'

The idea that this is an attempt to grab the "sympathy vote" is ludicrous, really. Trump and others have previously attacked Clinton for suspected ill health. The last thing she'd do, then, is give justification to such attacks. What the undecided Americans make of it is anyone's guess, but this is far more likely to be a vote-loser than a winner, and Clinton will have known that.
Yeah ad some people keep an open mind.
But then you would not know tat if it hit you square in the face.
//when she is ahead in the polls? // Perhaps do some Googling, she is not far ahead and she actually has very little to hit Trump with. Whilst the elitist Establishment may scoff at Trumps sound bites the Many of the American public agree with him. It is by no means a given Hillary will win.

" Perhaps do some Googling, she is not far ahead [in the polls]".
Depends on which poll you take. The gap is actually pretty healthy by US presidential election standards -- although with two months to go may yet narrow. Current models tend to predict a Hillary win with about 70% probability. Most polls give Clinton a lead of between 1 and 8 points, with Trump having tied in one or led by a point in another, but not much other than that to go on in the last month or so.
The race is very much alive, but Clinton's been leading all the way so far.

Poor woman. Every sneeze ,cough ,eyelid blink, stumble, hand gesture will scrutinized by the watching world, yesterday she looked unwell, she didn't stumble, she fell into the car,her staff did a poor job of assisting her adequately. Quite simply it could just be her age (67) ? and a gruelling schedule. Sympathy vote absolutely not, any world leader must be seen to be in tip top condition. So maybe she is not as healthy as Trump, but at least she is not Crazy and very dangerous.
