| 11/5/2008 2:30:20 PM |
We have had presidents in the past who had heart problems, and conversely those who have run marathons...
On paper, it seems that we have elected the healthiest candidate among the two. McCain and Biden released information on prior surgeries, Palin released nothing. Obama's release to the general public, "on paper", only consists of a one page report giving him a... Read More |
