Candidates health and wealth
The NY Times editorial today calls for full disclosure of the state of any presidential candidates medical and fiscal state, not just for the general election but for the primaries, too. This makes sense as we all need to know who has bought our presidential wannabes as well as how soon we can expect a state funeral. The Times also mentions one fact that seems all too appropriate.
What is known right now is that three of the current candidates have been treated for cancer — Mr. Giuliani, Senator John McCain and former Senator Fred Thompson. Voters have a right to know about all of the candidates’ health before they decide who should take on the grueling burdens of the White House.The Times, naturally, is talking of cancers of the body and not the cancer of the soul required of all current Republican candidates.
