It's not uncommon for older women to have problems with fainting. Hope that doesn't sound sexist but it's true. My mother is around the same age as Hill Hills and she's fainted a few times and been totally fine afterwards. It's very humid and somewhat hot and rather uncomfortable here in NYC today.

Still should have nominated Bernie, for different reasons than heath problems though.

Agreed it's most likely nothing serious, they should evaluate her and rule out any type of heart problems but other than probably a common faint. Either way it just doesn't look good when you are running for president.

Clearly she's in "excellent health"... Honestly, I don't think there's any evidence she's even in as good of health as Trump is. Even if the doctors notes were interpreted much differently by some Hillary supporters here.

The energy level for this election would be on a whole other level if Bernie was the nominee. Trump would be getting demolished.

Also I guess it's about 82 degrees humid with a breeze at the ceremony.

When did the faint happen? I watched a video of her stepping into a van fine with no faint, but Fox News says this,

"The Democratic presidential nominee appeared to faint on her way into her van ...stumbled off the curb, her "knees buckled" and she lost a shoe ..."


Is this just a lie?

This. The spin this is going to be given in attack ads is going to be nasty.

She didn't "step in". She fell forward and was dragged in.

Yeah, except we're talking a general, not a primary. One of several metrics Bernie crushed in was independents. Bernie would have the same number or more Democrats while having far more support from people outside the dem party.

To me it's fairly mind-boggling that people genuinely want such a sickly person in power. Maybe it's just me who thinks it portrays US really poorly... The attack ads will be there, they will hurt, but this is certainly one of the more legitimate things to attacks out there. Soon you'll see someone feeding Hillary food (exaggeration)... Yeah, not leadership material, I wish she went another political route (or retired).

Anyway, next few weeks of the elections should be interesting, a really good poll came out for Hillary today at +8, if that has any accuracy, it's game over for Trump.

She is pretty much dragged forward and into the car. you can see her 'collapse' just before SS covers up the shot.

I certainly think Bernie would do better at this point. Footage of her collapsing is seriously shitty. I think they'll have no choice but to replace her if this happens again.

You must have missed the video, she was flopping about like a fish.

Look at her feet (and her being propped up on a post before that)

In both you can see she doesn't step at all with her right foot.

Anyone want to bet there were other older people in the audience (less breeze and more heat do to densely packed people) that did fine and also would laugh if anyone tried to tell them they were in "excellent health".

I have a proposal for a proposition that everyone in the thread could perhaps agree with:

If both Hillary and Trump dropped out and made it a Kaine vs Pence race, the country would be better off.

That's mostly my calculus for this election already, seeing as I find both Hillary and Trump to be pretty shitty, but Kaine to be much more palatable than Pence.

Well it'd be going back 30 years. Pence is all about religion, and Kaine is too right wing of most people.

Pence would never win, which is bad, since the Democratic establishment is screwed up right now, and they need to lose ro get their senses straight. Even though I'd rather have Kaine than Hillary... that said, I'd rather have a drug addict teen than Hillary.
