Aug. 8, 2016, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning today issued the following statement in response to Hillary Clinton admitting that she lied about the presence of classified information on her private email server, saying, “I may have short-circuited and for that, I, you know, will try to clarify”:
“Hillary Clinton admitted that she short circuited while telling another lie about the FBI finding on her private email server, the question is how often does she short circuit?
“Between the six months Hillary spent recovering from a concussion to her weird apparent seizure caught on camera by NBC news to her congenital lying even when it would suit her to tell the truth, it is reasonable to be concerned that Hillary Clinton has some serious medical issues that impact her cognitive abilities. To allay any concerns about her fitness to perform the duties of the presidency, Hillary Clinton should immediately undergo a full neurological work up with the results submitted to an independent set of neurologists for review and then released to the public. It is common for presidential candidates to release medical histories. In an era of hypersensitivity surrounding concussions, there’s no reason why Hillary Clinton with her history of brain trauma shouldn’t allay those concerns publicly.
“The last thing America needs is a president who is continually short-circuiting, while attempting to perform the difficult duties of the office.”
