I wonder why. It's probably because the character is in horrible shape and he knows he's going to die soon and knows that might screw up his campaign if the american public knew that and allowed an even bigger rookie to sit on the presidential seat than the one they fear.

Because he's had 4 bouts of melanoma. He won't release details because his last one was likely a stage 4 which means that he has only a 15% of surviving the next 5 years. Then there are his mental health records from his time as a POW.

the guy has had skin cancer.. a lot of stuff.. he's 70 something.. he's obviously in bad shape.. the mere fact that their hiding his records tells us that... otherwise if they had nothing to hide and he was fine, they would release his record to boast the fact that he's healthy.

Link for story. I don't think he's in bad health. I can't say that I'm a big fan of Palin however.

in McCain's case, he doesn't want it to be part of the discussion, because any discussion about his health will pivot around his past bout with cancer. that only instills fear and worry; not confidence in him. so we won't see those records until...no. we never will.

It is his personal business, although I could agree that his mental record affects his ability to be a good president IMO. Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome is a very bad thing when regarding someone who has to be the foreign mediator and diplomatic entity of this nation. I honor and respect his servitude to our great nation, but I fear for the moment that he uncontrollably snaps. :?

Obama gave a one page doctor's note.....

McCain allowed reporters to look over his actual records.....

Obama is in worse shape than McCain on this issue.

HardQuor

but if people are crying about Obama and how he apparently refuses to show his birth certificate which people are concerned about him not being born in America and how that should disqualify him and if it HAS TO be known exactly the longitude and latitudes of where he was born, then shouldnt information be released about a candidate who is an aging man that is on the verge of death(slight exagerration)?

I fail to see the correlation between place of birth and health status between the two candidates.

Of course you wont.

Basically, if people want all of Obama's records to be put on public display, then so should McCain's

Why wouldn't i, exactly?

If a candidate has lied about one of the required attributes for eligibility, that's one thing. Under no circumstance should a candidate be forced to supply information to the public about his/her health issues. No circumstance.

They have been.....to reporters Obama had a one page doctor's note that had information from his most recent physical essentially.

A birth certificate is actual relevant to Obama's "legal" ability to be president Medical records aren't.

Obama's birth certificate could invalidate his qualifications. McCain's health doesn't although it can be an issue for voters. In Obama's case, it wouldn't be an issue for voters because he wouldn't be running. That's the difference.

I understand that, it's just that it seems like haters are grasping at straws with only 2 weeks left.

Anyways, I suppose the House has all the credentials needed for Obama to be a qualified candidate It's just a matter of the people.

Well McCain's old like really old so perhaps his healh records are sealed in the smithsonian with other ancient relics? I honestly don't think it matters about his health records..though I suspect it's so the nation doesn't go oh crap we can't elect him or we'll be screwed with the Moose hunting whack job.

Glad for that. My friend tells me he saw a car with a bumper sticker for Hillary '08, and right next to it McCain/Palin '08. He said, loudly at them, "You IDIOTS" then realized his car window was down. lolz

I think that he should at least release some things so we know what we are looking at if he in fact does get elected. And I don't understand the relevance of a birth certificate don't you think that by this far along they would have already checked up on Obama to make sure he was legit, I mean there is what like 2 weeks left?

It is his personal business, although I could agree that his mental record affects his ability to be a good president IMO. Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome is a very bad thing when regarding someone who has to be the foreign mediator and diplomatic entity of this nation. I honor and respect his servitude to our great nation, but I fear for the moment that he uncontrollably snaps. :?warbmxjohn

the health of a candidate for president is not personal IMO. esp when you have Palin as a VP.

I agree, and I suppose in a way that's how I look at at this whole birth certificate fiasco. It's none of our business and he shouldn't have to show his birth certificate to the people when the higher ups that allow anyone to make a ballot for the presidency have already seen what they needed to see to allow him to run.

I think McCain showed his to raise this issue that has spread amongst the folks.

Whoever it is its a private thing medical records. This guy is already having his whole life analysed by the media let him have his basic liberties like the right to hold on to his medical records lest he have something embarassing that the media would blow out of all proportion.

I'm sorry but what you said is utterly disgraceful and undemocratic.

I think the sheer hilarity of McCain promising to reveal his health records upon Obama showing an official notorized birth certificate and how it's portrayed on all the different networks is worth the embarassment of both campaigns.

See my previous post. Didn't he already release his medical records? I believe Obama released his at the same time.
