Despite the rather common vulgarity of mocking associated with benighted internet users, Hilary Clinton appears to me, to be in serious trouble health wise. I can't help but notice some of the symptoms of a neurological malfunction. Not the best video i could find no doubt, but it shows the strange movements as she attempts to get into the car frame by frame. Other reports state she's been prone of late to hysterical elongated laughter and rages at staff, another sign of a brain malfunction. What is the US opinion here? More crucially, could this affect her as a potential winning candidate?

I am also worried about Hillary's health.
I believe it's much more serious than stated.

It does look seriously like Mrs. Clinton could well be invalided out of the running for presidency, if what is said is true and that she has serious Parkinsons ! Looks remarkably as if Trump will have no competition ? Heaven help America !

Thank you ladies. I noted that she had a prior bleed on the brain due to the clot in late 2012. Her movements seem jerky not shaky. I am no expert but Parkinson's symptoms are in the main, shaking and slowness in movement. I feel none of her symptoms bode well for the future.

Please, Momus, check your sources more carefully. Videos & "facts" such as these are created by alt-right American mythmakers, the same ones who say Barack Obama was born in Kenya. "Birthers", we normal Americans call them. Part of a vicious right-wing "conspiracy", although they do not behave in secret, but out in the open, so I guess conspiracy may not be the correct term. They spread lies and falsehoods, always against Progressive people, in huge numbers, hoping something may stick to someone's mind. Believe anything they say at a risk to your own sanity and freedom. Pernicious Scaremongering, as my good man Bruv says. How poetic of you, Bruv!

Re-read the opening post. I stated, it was not the best video but it showed her jerking.. Or did you miss that? If you have trouble understanding, please let me know. I can moderate my English to accommodate you. Further more, when Bruv comes up with an original word all by himself rather than repeating mine from another earlier post, there may be good cause for your celebration.

You come here with no stats, but claim superiority and knowledge based on your fine vocabulary. Your attitude, however, belies your intent. I'm on to you, Superboy. You might be a pest, you might be a paid plant. They are always hired during American presidential elections to spread propaganda on the internet.
Be as it may, I am very secure in my intelligence and credentials. You can't insult me & make it stick.

Be as it may, I am very secure in my intelligence and credentials. You can't insult me & make it stick. Paid plant? Gosh. Now let's see. As i am aware, there are thousands of US political forums out there, with a substantial amount more traffic than this one. Most seem preoccupied with the presidential election. So, logically, what you are saying, is that of all the thousands of political forums out there, discussing the election, i deliberately choose one with, from what i have seen thus far, around 20 posters, and half of those English who would have no participation whatsoever in the voting on account of them being on another continent. Is that really what you are seriously suggesting? Further more, this being the very first thread i have posted, just how influential do you believe, my one thread and one post is going to be in the election results? Do you think that entire states will exclaim, ' Hold fire, Momus has posted on Clinton's health. We better reconsider our vote'. After all, you could be a paid plant in order to quell the magnitude of opinion reversal, but then, that would be monumentally inane wouldn't it? Try this out. If you don't like the subject or my posts, then simple, ignore. I will no longer enter into your infantile jostling for brownie points. Goodnight deary.

You seem to be disputing that she kept on turning out for the public while suffering from pneumonia which, to be frank, you cannot do. Her own team says she did it while having it. Nobody yet has said she's back to health, either.
She's a pensioner with pneumonia. I watched a pensioner with pneumonia die some years ago, it's not a pretty sight. It's not a trivial issue, still less if the patient refuses treatment in order to stay on her campaign trail - which is where she was at Ground Zero.
This is all good judgement calls on the part of the candidate and her team? If you claim that then I think you're showing partisan prejudice rather than engaging in a conversation.

Having once had a good case of "walking pneumonia", I am not alarmed at all by Hilary's physical collapse. You can feel like you are "just a little ill", and you have so much to do. You just keep trying to get everything done, and suddenly, you hit the floor.
As for those videos, I never watch them. Film can be easily manipulated, and what you think you are seeing may be fake. If I want to watch movies, I turn on the TV and go channel surfing.

I've seen no videos. I've seen no news footage either, come to that, not of anything, not in months.
We have a folk singer in England who is the spitting image of Hillary fifteen years back and she - Maddy Prior - is a national treasure. Everyone loves Maddy Prior. And it struck me that if Hillary Clinton could only sing like that and dance jigs barefoot and look quite so uninhibitedly happy with life then she'd make the most engaging president of all time. Maybe she could take lessons.

Come now, take another look. I saw her on stage last month and the resemblance to the Hillary Clinton of fifteen or so years ago was complete, except Maddy Prior has better taste in clothing.
was recorded this June, for example.
was on last year's tour, I saw that too.

I fall into no trap. My amaranthine quest for cognition invariably permits me to source most reliable reports of events. Nor do i possess philistinism when faced with separating hogwash and verisimilitude. One has to take into account, when sourcing reliability from the US, it's akin to finding a pip in a melon field. Most are aberrant at the best of times, contributing to the US national sport of contriving a variety of conspiracy theories. Only this evening, one has been entertained momentarily at the latest headlines that suggest, Ms Clinton is actually dead and a stunt double has been replacing her public appearances for the past few months. My only inconsequential corrigendum being that unfortunately, my late night lethargy contributed to my poor choice of example, in my desire not to waste further time. One had rather hoped, that others would debate the thread question, over and above the content.

Is this a compulsory prerequisite of confabulation within the forum? Or perhaps a tacit, assuage, hazing process in order to endear one's self? I am certain the conversational intercourse with Mr Spot would indeed be advantageous to one's quest for knowledge, although, it would be presumptuous, to accredit Mr Spot with a mutually beneficial advantage at this stage in proceedings, accepteriez-vous, un jeune homme?
