...in the form of letters from three doctors. Letters from doctors is the normal way for candidates to release their medical records.

Briahna Joy Gray felt that saying he hasn’t released his medical records was like birthers saying Obama didn’t release his birth certificate after he did.

With regard to saying Mike Bloomberg had a heart attack: we don’t know but he had heart surgery where he got two stents. She apologized for saying he had a heart attack.

We were discussing sanders. Personally, I think everyone should release their medical records concerning anything that could impact a potential president. I don't think we need to know about ingrown toenails or athlete's foot, but things like heart attacks, stroke, cancer, etc should be released.

We know for a fact that letters can say anything, including things that aren't true. I also think it should apply to everyone, along with tax returns from at least several years previously.

First it was “it’s tradition that candidates release their medical records” and now its “only Sanders said he would.”

This is all bullshit. Just say you don’t support Sanders and move on with it.
