Isn't it about time a 71 year old president who's been in office for over half a year to have a complete physical and mental checkup by federal military doctors? He's our leader but also our servant. Shouldn't his health be evaluated by sobersided officials and, if found wanting, shouldn't that be known and taken into our leaders' considerations?
The president's health shouldn't be a secret.

Yes, you can ask your leader in North Korea to go get a physical and mental checkup... I am not sure why you think he is 71, maybe you should get a checkup too...

Actually, the president is only our servant, not our leader. He's elected to be the leader of the federal government, not the people of the United States. In fact, we don't elect leaders at all. We elect representatives, who we send to the House or Senate. They act on our behalf. The president's job is only to lead the government; he/she is selected by electors, whom the people vote for. The electors will then decide who is best fit to lead the government.

And rather or not Trump sees a doctor is his business.

What about his mental competency? Lot's of 71 year old men suffer from a diminished mental capacity. He's shown signs and raised people's suspicions. Don't we have a right to know what we've got here?

Good health is not legally required.
Tax returns are not legally required.
USA born is required.
Minimum age is required.
Residency in the USA for X amount of years is required. I forgot the amount but there is a number.

If anything we should first talk about birth certificates before talking about tax returns and health summaries.

Proof of residency is another issue.

He can chose his own doctor. He can also chose what information to make public.

Really? Wouldn't good health and mental competency be more important? He's got his hands on the buttons that could initiate the end of the world as we know it.

Your rights are not greater than his or mine.
