"To Whom My Concern"

       What does health have to do with anything? I'm unhealthy, but I could do a better job than either presidential contender. In fact my kids could do better than them. The thing is, neither myself nor my kids would want the job. All kidding aside, the health question is a valid one. We need someone who would not be constantly distracted by health issues, if possible.
       So now comes a bunch of wild claims about Hillary's poor health, all of which seem to have been debunked. She ain't no spring chicken, but then we don't really want one as president. She does have some little experience. And while she's had some mistakes, she does seem to be thinking clearly and acting the same way.
       Across the stage and stepping to his podium, The Donald has in his hand a half page, typed letter from a Gastroenterologist (?) who seems to be a high school student with third grade writing skills. It took him five minutes to write  his report on Trump's health, affirming that the Donald will be the healthiest person ever elected to the presidency in all American history. Well, what about George Washington? He was in great shape. Is Trump in better shape than Washington? How would we know? Because this gastro doc thinks so?
       Ya know the more times you read that short letter the more it sounds exactly the way Trump would describe himself. Its like this doctor is a long lost identical Donald with long grey hair and beard who got his finger caught in a light bulb socket. And Trumps test results are "astonishingly excellent?"
       In fairness, we do need to get the accurate and complete report from a qualified doctor on the health of both candidates. It might be the most truthful and potentially useful information we would get in this campaign season. I say that because folks on the far right continue to claim that Clinton is incapable of telling the truth and the rest of the world think Trump is insane. And again in the spirit of fairness, in this insane world we live in, either trait could be helpful.
       So lets get complete reports including all tests completed and the results thereof on Hillary and Donald. Not even the upcoming debates would tell us more about the candidates. After all, claims of incompetence from both candidates against the other do little to convince anyone.
