I figured it was some sort of chest infection after I saw the video where she spit some phelgm out. I still cannot get over how people obsessed about this woman's health and calling her all sorts of nasty names. Likes seriously. This woman was standing in the sun and humidity in a dark pant suit wearing body armor for over an hour. Of course she is going to get dizzy. I know I would.

Okay then... let's say she's not ill. Given the set of conditions you describe, would you suggest someone who would pass out, rare or not, under the circumstance is fit to be our commander in chief?
Fainting is a common problem, accounting for 3% of emergency room visits and 6% of hospital admissions. It can happen in otherwise healthy people. A person may feel faint and lightheaded (presyncope) or lose consciousness (syncope).
...
Typically an attack occurs while standing and is frequently preceded by a sensation of warmth, nausea, lightheadedness and visual "grayout."

You may suffer from a simple fainting spell due to anxiety, fear, pain, intense emotional stress, hunger, or use of alcohol or drugs. Most people who suffer from simple fainting have no underlying heart or neurological (nerve or brain) problem.

Doesn't it take an X-ray to diagnose pneumonia?
Does Chelsea have a machine at her place?
My brother gets it a lot. And he is late 50's and poor health in general.
They need an x-ray to tell.
She couldn't be doing what's she's been doing and have pneumonia and it doesn't knock you down like that, all of a sudden.
That's crazy and if she was made to go on like that with that condition, I don't know what to say.

Pneumonia does NOT causes seizure-like symptoms like what can be seen from the videos posted today.
More lame excuse lies from the DNC...sigh....

If she has pneumonia, why did she come out of Chelsea's looking fine?

The swallowing difficulties caused by the Parkinson's can easily cause pneumonia, especially if someone is exhausted to start with as she obviously would be.
She probably aspirated during that last coughing session where she was choking and gagging. It took a couple days to turn into a pneumonia.
