Word is that Hillary is suffering from “vascular dementia” and will probably die within a year. Or maybe even before the elections.
My guess is she would be replaced by her vice presidential pick Tim Kaine or possibly Joe Biden. Kain would perhaps be less than a total disaster, but relatively little information about him can be discovered immediately. Biden is a hopeless, ancient, corrupt political hack.
Or maybe Hillary will be secretly “replaced” by a double (the Beatles ruse)? If she suddenly recovers the conspiracy world will instantly go on red alert.

I cannot understand how a Dr. having diagnosed “pneumonia” after mistaking it for “allergies” for months can just prescribe some antibiotics, recommend “rest” and believe she is doing good work.
Clinton’s campaign have one goal: to get her to the WH so they can get nominated to some juicy posts even if the old bag dies
two days after.
Or is it that Tim Kaine is the real candidate and sacrificing Hillary is the way in?
Anyway, the “killer of Gaddafi” doesn’t deserve a gram of sympathy from the world she would be about to wantonly destroy.

Tim Kaine – Elizabeth Warren?
Still too early to say with any certainty but carefully orchestrated bulls*t leads me to believe that Hillary’s exit from the race might be planned. Was she too important to prosecute but was not going to be allowed to be President?
I remember Bloomberg’s appearance in late January where he stated that he would run if the major Party nominees were Trump and Sanders. I imagine that he was one of the few (at that time) that understood how bad Hillary’s email troubles really were. Was Hillary allowed to stay in the race to a) defeat Sanders and b) have an opportunity to exit public life without disgrace (via supposed health issues)?
Some will say that her negatives caught up to her or her misdeeds weighed on her conscience (causing or exacerbating her health problems). Maybe. But the rumors of her health issues are fairly recent (most appeared within the last few weeks), and the circumstances around today’s event are rather strange. She just rebutted questions about her health days ago(!) but we get a peak(!) at her being dragged to a van and a comical, goofball act from her campaign that starts with heat exhaustion and ends with pneumonia (and a canceling of a campaign trip to California).
Additionally, the timing of an exit couldn’t be better. And this would not be the first time that Hillary’s health mysteriously became an issue. She put off testifying to the Benghazi investigation for weeks due to a health issue.
<> <> <> <> <> <> <>
News media seem rather uncurious about Zdenek Gazda. He’s the guy that got the video of Hillary being put into the van. Here is Fox News description:

The New Jersey resident who took the video, Zdenek Gazda, told Foxnews.com he had been a fireman in the Czech Republic and came to the 9/11 ceremony to pay his respects.
“Everything was fine, everything was good before,” said Gazda, who snapped several shots of Clinton before taking the video. “I take a lot of pictures of her. She looked very nice and everything, and I don’t know what happened to her.”

In an election season in which the possibility of Russian manipulation of the election has been raised as a serious issue, the fact that a foreign/foreign-born individual has taken a video that may have changed the race has not raised any questions?
Why is he in the US? When did he come to the US? Is he a Democrat? A Republican? Why was he so well positioned – not just for the shot of Hillary entering the van but also other pics and videos of the event?

Pneumonia vaccines are recommended for adults over age 65. Question is, did Hillary fail to take hers? If so, why?
If she did take her vaccines, is the pneumonia diagnosis just a cover for something else?
Unfortunately, Hillary has a history of not taking preventive measures…her email server, Benghazi, etc.

The current pneumonia vaccine only covers two types (of many) bacterial pneumonia pathogens, and none of the viral type.

@wwinst #7:

Also, to me it looks like she is doing that head bobbing thing again, like she did when she was asked questions by several reporters simultaneously while walking, and then at the Democratic convention. On those two previous occasions, one had to point out that a person can have a (petit mal) seizure without falling. This time, she fell.
Hillary’s fund-raising trip to California planned for today and tomorrow has been cancelled. The pneumonia story provides cover for that. (Which is not to say that she does not have pneumonia. The point is that pneumonia cannot explain her collapse.)

@Grieved #19:
Clinton would eliminate all other Dem contenders and then she’d be pulled at the last minute for Biden to step in.
That seems to employ an interpretive framework common here at MoA. This is that the Empire is infinitely knowledgeable and clever, so that anything of geopolitical significance that happens anywhere must be explained as another clever trick by the Empire’s planners and strategists. (Obama fools Putin once again with Turkey’s invasion of Syria.)
So Hillary is to be seen as a mere instrument of the US Establishment, in the same way that Obama is. (Obama does seem to be a creation of the CIA.) But I see Hillary more as an American Chernenko, as Petri Krohn does at #6 above. What is happening now with Hillary is not another example of planning by the deep state; it is just the usual pattern among declining empires that their systems are too corrupt for good leaders to be chosen.

Posted by: Demian | Sep 12 2016 16:50 utc | 21

My hunch for quite some time now has been Hillary has some debilitating affliction that modern medicine cannot overcome. Many have speculated that it might be Parkinson’s or what blues said @3 “vascular dementia”. Whatever her diagnosis is it appears to be neurologically related given her falls, her seizures, her concussion (which I believe was a Traumatic Brain Injury aka TBI). A concussion is a mild brain injury that can take up to three or so months to recover. TBI’s are a lifetime.
A family member of mine had a serious fall in her early sixties and she was hospitalized with a TBI for six months. The first couple of weeks were in ICU and then she was transferred to a long-term nursing facility. She takes coumadin due to the two serious injuries to her brain. Sadly, her health continues to deteriorate and she will remain in a long-term nursing facility till her last breath.
Hillary is and has been a very sick lady for some time now. The fire, energy and determination she exuded during the 2008 campaign has not been visible during this run. The image of her stubbornly giving a speech in the rain to thousands of supporters in ’08 are not seen this time around. The packed rally’s are gone. She’s a shell of the person she once was.
blues @3 said “My guess is she would be replaced by her vice presidential pick Tim Kaine or possibly Joe Biden. Kain would perhaps be less than a total disaster, but relatively little information about him can be discovered immediately. Biden is a hopeless, ancient, corrupt political hack.”
Tim Kaine IS Obama’s third term. He IS Obama’s pick. Not Hillary’s. Kaine screwed Hillary in ’08 by peeling off many of Hillary’s super delegates in Virginia to support Obama. I know what that man did to eliminate her support in this state as do many others who left the Party, as I did, in total disgust. Never forget Virginia was a fire red state until the ’08 election. Kaine was the Governor. Virginia put Obama in the White House.
A funny thing happened a couple of years after the ’08 election along with other extremely odd wins for other D’s in both local and statewide elections in Virginia. The voting machines in several key districts that went blue were quietly removed due to a preponderance of evidence of manipulation. There was only one alt news outlet that covered the story. No one in mainstream touched it. I’m thinking both parties were aware, both parties manipulated and both parties agreed to kill the story. Lots of elections I’m sure would be over turned like say the match up b/w George Allen and Jim Webb…
I am suggesting the neolib leadership has known Hillary’s ailment was extremely serious for some time now, and I’m just guessing here, but I’m confident many tried to talk her out of running in ’16 for the sake of her health and her family. But knowing Hillary, and pretty much any woman who had come so close to reaching the pinnacle of her/their lifetime dreams — to crack the highest glass ceiling in elite land — the US Presidency — she wasn’t going to let any illness, no matter how serious, get in her way.
What we are witnessing is Operation ‘it takes a Village’, that is, the entire Dem elite cabal has circled their wagons to ensure Hillary’s lifelong wish is realized — being sworn in as the first woman to the U.S. Presidency no matter how ill she may be. Phase two of Operation ‘it takes a Village’ is to have in place Obama’s chosen predecessor — Tim Kaine ready to take the helm when she finally succumbs to her illness.
I predict she won’t make it to November. Then what?

Posted by: h | Sep 12 2016 17:46 utc | 23

What I am curious about is why Trump also left the 9/11 ceremony early, just like Clinton. Was he sick, or didn’t he give a damn about 9/11? The point being that the media is not paying attention to his antics.
And no, I am not partial toward either candidate, nor will I vote for either. But I certainly notice the obvious bias against Clinton. Personally, I think the US needs younger blood running it than these two old codgers.

Posted by: CJ | Sep 12 2016 18:20 utc | 25

The pneumonia narrative that is peddled by her campaign and echoed by western presstitute media is obviously damage control. I wonder how all those powerful elites that gave her millions of bribes (donor money) must feel now. The chance that she will need to be replaced is real and propping up a replacement will again cost millions. Trump who has been dragged trough the mud (his naked wife, small penis, …) is remarkably tame on the issue. If it’s not because both he and Clinton have conspired right from the start, then it must be that his campaigns strategy is to look like the “nice guy”.
Here’s her “pneumonia” episode but from another angle. If you watch her hands, it’s clear she lost total control which of course is confirmed seconds later when she drops like a rag doll.
https://www.youtube.com/embed/11-EAzsGxgQ
And again her creepy performance before the journos. The comments are also quite funny: “This honestly creeped me out… I think it was demon coming out of her…” or “My guess is that she’s truly a reptilian creature and it’s fighting to retain its humanoid form.”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMHOcmDVBP0
If such episode would occur during her presidency she’d probably wag the dog like her husband did during the Lewinsky case and bomb some pharmaceutical factories to rubbles in some poor defenseless country.
Guess Google will have to crank their false search results up a notch as to prevent Jill Stein causing a 2000 election moment and having the republicans win.

Posted by: Lamassu | Sep 12 2016 19:03 utc | 27

I have been reading a lot of sites and am now convinced that Clinton has been very ill for some time. There are countless photos which give it away – from the neurological test of gripping two fingers presented to her which her aides do often, to the pictures of aides taking her pulse while waiting for her ride yesterday, the repeated head movements she makes when being ‘ambushed’ by journalist, the placement of her hands to stop trembling, the coughing, the weird fixed smile – they all indicate middle-stage Parkinson’s.

Posted by: mischi | Sep 12 2016 20:00 utc | 29

@mischi #30:
they all indicate middle-stage Parkinson’s.
Yes, there has been speculation about Parkinson’s for months, but I never accepted that, because Parkinson’s is characterized by the inability to initiate movement, so that a feature is having a stone-faced look, which Hillary does not have.
I just ran across a comment to an Atlantic article which tells me for the first time what I think Hillary might actually have: progressive supranuclear palsy.

She can’t walk, she can’t control her own oral secretions and so she is aspirating them…they are going down into her lung. Hence the cough, and now aspiration pneumonia. Her fall and head injury weren’t the cause…something caused the fall.
I think she has a progressive neurological disease. Some speculate Parkinson’s, but I favor Progressive Supranuclear Palsy…the disease the late Dudley Moore, actor, had. It is insidious in onset but starts with balance and gait difficulties. It’s been 4 years since Hillary fell and got her concussion, so the disease is inexorably progressing.
Also…she had to be dragged into that van. Her feet were being dragged. If this was the first time something like this happened, she would have been taken to the ER. No lay people would have done anything else. So, this is a recurrent problem they’ve dealt with before.

The symptoms of the disease listed by Wikipedia seem to match what we’ve seen of Hillary pretty well.
That comment is definitely the best speculation about Hillary’s condition I have seen thus far. I started reading Atlantic comments recently. The Atlantic’s posts are about as pro-Hillary as Salon’s, but the comment section of the Atlantic turns out not to be a Dem echo chamber, as Salon and HuffPo entertainingly are.

@psychohistorian #35, @Copeland #37
She still doesn’t strike me as sociopathic. Just very ambitious, completely dishonest, highly blackmailable, and, by the look of it, seriously ill.
I think the question should be – what person, or more likely, what group of people make a vulnerable (however flawed) person with quickly progressing disability run for POTUS on their behalf, and what do they hope to achieve through her weakness and dependency on them, while fully accessing the greatest executive power on planet Earth?
Someone on ZH just observed that Pres’s Wilson and FDR were both basically disabled by the time each presided over US entering another World War. Ominous.
(and I am not saying D Trump would be any better, just possibly harder to control – and even that comes with a big question mark, reality show hosting and all)

Posted by: Quadriad | Sep 12 2016 22:03 utc | 37

Sandes name comes up on alt news sites like this one.

Hillary Clinton is obviously very unwell and she should step down. Bernie Sanders, who came in second during the primary should take her place and give American citizens a real choice in this election.

The reason Sanders’ name never comes up in the corporate press is that Sanders was a populist candidate, like Trump.

Posted by: Demian | Sep 12 2016 22:29 utc | 39

@38 Quadriad
Maybe Hillary is being used as a means to an end. The Clintons and the Bushes hide a rat’s nest of secrets. She runs for the presidency, in the way someone in the mafia might have to pay off a debt. And for an example elsewhere, General Pinochet, the infamous head of the Chilean Junta, escaped prosecution over reasons of incapacity to stand trial and ill health, even though he was arrested, extradited, and brought back to Chile for trial.
The cancer that is the Clinton Foundation will escape scrutiny probably because it remains an instrument of the permanent government, or Deep State. But nothing would surprise me now. If there is an October Surprise, it is probably another damn coup. It seems we are on a roll. Don’t get too comfortable, or think that we will come out unscathed, or that we will not have another president selected for us.

Posted by: Curtis | Sep 12 2016 23:08 utc | 43

Copeland@42 – “…Maybe Hillary is being used as a means to an end…” Give yourself a little more credit, Copeland. She IS CLEARLY being used as a means to an end. What everyone should be wondering about isn’t whether she or Kaine will be sitting in the White House, but who is the next Cheney that will be pulling the strings behind the scenes for either of them. What is the next 9/11 the future Cheney is scheming? The thought that either of these two will actually run anything is preposterous – they are distractions. They are to serve as the brightly-dressed clowns with big, floppy shoes and neon green wigs dancing around in front of us while some version of Cheney II opens up the gold vaults and blood chutes back in DC.
I’ll humbly suggest that most people are looking in the rear-view mirror for answers. Every U.S. citizens should look closely in the shadows around them now for their next evil masters. The U.S. MSM is not trying to get Hillary elected. They are desperately trying to look like they are so the debate goes on endlessly. And it’s working absolutely wonderfully in an insidious, evil, psychopathic sort of way.
Americans are easy – we will all honestly be surprised by the next 9/11 and it’s inevitable result. Hillary or Trump are just sideshow freaks; they’re not the main attraction.

@42 copeland, @46 pw
‘Means to an end’ is the job description of the entire political class. We need to make choices of representatives/spokespersons from among ourselves, and ultimately to empower ourselves, to turn down our own deplorable, now exclusive reliance on representatives/spokespersons. No one has our interests at heart but ourselves. No to Clinton, no to Trump.

Discussions of Hillary’s health were mostly created by her attempt to delay Benghazi hearings with (what I believe) were bogus health concerns.
Scuttlebutt about her health may have been found on what are considered fringe sites but grew in intensity in the last few weeks.
She did fine during the stress of debates with Sanders.
My best guess is that her ‘retirement’ is planned. But I’m NOT her MD, close aid, Washington insider, etc.

It should be beyond obvious that Clinton is not fit for the office of president. Further, it could be said she is not concerned about her country, but rather her own self aggrandizement.

William Henry Harrison of the “Tippecanoe” indian fighter fame, died of an illness, very shortly after winning the US presidency. His death came not that long after he was sworn in.. He was an old man at the time.

Posted by: Copeland | Sep 13 2016 3:22 utc | 57

She’s in advanced Parkinson’s. Her symptoms can’t be masked anymore.
Even Google (which is in league with the Clintons) will suggest “Parkinson’s” if you type “hillary clinton p” into a search box.
Even if Hillary has no more events like she did on Sunday until the election, it is very clear that she has Parkinson’s, and there’s a lot of buzz about that on the Net. So keeping her name on the ballot on election day would do more damage to the legitimacy of the American political system than the theft of the 2000 election did. So I doubt that the establishment will run the risk of keeping her name on.
And if she does manage to make it to November and get elected, her chances of making it through another two months to get inaugurated are not that good.

Posted by: Demian | Sep 13 2016 5:51 utc | 59

How about she was drunk?A couple of stiff ones to perk her sick ass up before the political photo op.And going to her daughters house instead of the ER prevents blood work analysis.

@dahoit, TheRealDonald:
Have you watched Ted Noel’s videos in which he provides arguments for why the most likely explanation for Hillary’s various symptoms is Parkinson’s?
I think that the dividing line between people who think that there is “something wrong” with Hillary (other than being a drunk perhaps) is whether you are willing to come to the conclusion that she has a neurological condition. If you do, then Parkinson’s appears to be the best diagnosis. Hillary’s head bobbing and stares cannot be explained by alcoholism.
