I'd probably vote for him notwithstanding any health issues. But at least in terms of public perception, it's pretty bad. You can't blame voters for taking this into account. Media coverage of him is often skewed/unfair, but the campaign itself just confirmed the heart attack

This is from a statement put out by the campaign. A "myocardial infarction" is a heart attackpic.twitter.com/ZiQZmFAbuL

Ok. It’s acknowledged. Now what? I still support him. I don’t get your concern troll. People will make of it what they will and that’s the end of it
-
How is this a “concern troll”? He had a heart attack as confirmed by his own campaign. So it should be acknowledged honestly rather than spun. I’m not saying anyone needs to alter their voting preference. As I said in the tweet, I will probably vote for him regardless.

Honestly, all of the top candidates have this issue. It's not just about health either, but the ability of someone 70+ to govern in an age defined by rapid technological change as well as grapple with issues like cybersecurty, cryptocurrency, AI, automation, deepfakes, ect.
-
These things are of vital national security and economic interest and tie into dozens of other interrelated issues, so it's not something they can simply rely on advisers for either. We cant trust someone who started using a computer in their 50s to make good decisions on this.

...and let's acknowledge that people who support him are still going to vote for him because he's the only one truly speaking truth to power. And anyone who doesn't vote for him because of this wasn't going to, anyway.

Have you seen his daily schedule for the last 8 months? If Bernie were frail he would have succumbed long ago. He just played a public baseball game last month. Didn't look like a man who's ready to give up the fight. Nor should he.
-
It has been even more than 8 months. To be honest, the man never stopped after the 2016 election.

It wasn’t a heart attack. He felt chest discomfort and went to the hospital to check it out, and found plaque buildup in the arteries, for which stents are a standard procedure. He was keeping up an insane schedule with only 70% blood flow. He’ll be at 100% next week.

Mary Anne, the campaign has now confirmed it was a heart attack.

I can’t believe he is going to be in the October debates!? That’s crazy! I would think you would need a few weeks recovery time after a heart attack? Plus the stress on his heart when he isn’t even healed yet. Yikes.
-
There's levels of severity when it comes to heart attacks. Seeing as he was released now, it couldn't have been that serious.

About 68.4% males & 89.8% females still living have already lived 10/14 years or longer after their first infarction attack; 27.3% males, 15 /19 years & 4.3% 20 years or longer;blah blah blah.. Two terms equal 8 years, we're gonna be alright!

Heart disease is the number one cause of death. Anyone acting as if they DONT have a loved one affected by it is lying. People live with it everyday. Even the almighty Bill C. Had heart issues. Bernie just needs a plant based diet and he will be good to go!
