???? Is No one going to mention the nose dive clinton took at ground zero?

So... you are equating medical care of Joe (European) smow to the level of health care a world leader?

Do you really think you got the same attention with your cough that clinton got?

If that's what you got out of my post, fine. My point was sometimes a cough is just a cough, and there isn't any medication that can make it go away, regardless of your wealth or social / political status.

So no, I don't think my cough got the same attention that Clinton's got. I do however, think the outcome was the same. Some doctor somewhere told her "you're old, coughs happen, there's nothing we can do about it". That's more likely than her being seriously ill with no other symptoms other than her collapsing after being diagnosed with pneumonia a few days earlier.

She's been on the campaign trail all summer, in one of the hottest summers in recent years, and this was the first time anything even remotely newsworthy has happened regarding her health. So forgive me if I choose to ignore the Trump rhetoric and look at the evidence.

From what TV reports and youtube clips I see, it looks simply that all the public speaking is putting a lot of strain on her voice, which has recently been exacerbated by the touch of pneumonia. This is a common complaint among tachers and others who need to speak loudly and clearly for a living.
