New Emails: Hillary Needs Podium, ‘Cannot Walk Around’
lifezette.com ^ | Edmund Kozak

Emails obtained by Citizens United through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request and released on Tuesday suggest that walking around a stage may have been a challenging burden for Hillary Clinton as early as 2009.

In a 2009 email exchange between top Clinton aide Huma Abedin and Clinton Global Initiative employees Amitabh Desai and Ed Hughes, Abedin revealed that Clinton could not walk around the stage like her husband Bill Clinton and would need a podium for an upcoming address.

"Just want to make sure someone has coordinated with you on hrc speech set up," Abedin wrote. "She won't be able to give it in the round like [Bill Clinton] does walking around with microphone," she explained. "Are we able to set it up so shes speaking at a podium [sic]?"

Hughes told Abedin that a high table that doubles as a podium would be on the stage for Clinton's use, but also noted that "the room is set 'stage in the round' with the circular stage in the center of the round, audience all around in concentric circles … similar to some of last year's campaign rallies with public in the background."

Interestingly, even that raised a red flag for Abedin. "I'm worried that will be an issue for her. Can we do a half round or something?" she asked. The exchange suggests that Clinton not only may have trouble physically walking around a stage, but also some trouble focusing with the presence of a crowd behind her.

I think what Huma “Scissorgirl” Abedin means is lectern...not podium.

Has she lost her balance from a coma induced injury or traumatic brain injury? Sounds like it

Remember when presidents and candidates were shown doing physical activities like normal humans? Reagan on horseback, Bush 41 speed golf, Bill Clinton jogging, even Dukakis’ awkward walking with hand weights.

Trump is no Jack LaLanne but he is a hell of a golfer...but that would obviously be considered a PR liability (despite Obama’s near constant rounds).

Meanwhile, Hillary has been morbidly obese for decades. She has confirmed and/or obvious, serious physical and mental infirmities. She is under the constant influence of a potent cocktail of drugs. And speaking of cocktails, it’s an open secret that Hillary has made alcohol a substitute for the friends she lacks and to provide an escape from the years of humiliation courtesy of her so-called husband.

If Sarah Palin was in this physical condition we could be excused for questioning her fitness for office. Hillary’s swivel-eyed Marxism is made even more dangerous by her addled state.

Maybe this time she will stay put behind the lectern and break into a song:

Oh well I’m the type of gal who will never settle down
Where pretty girls are well, you know that I’m around
I kiss ‘em and I love ‘em ‘cause to me they’re all the same
I hug ‘em and I squeeze ‘em they don’t even know my name
They call me the wanderer, yeah the wanderer
I roam around around around

Oh well there’s Flo on my left and there’s Mary on my right
And Janie is the girl with that I’ll be with tonight
And when she asks me which one I love the best
I tear open my shirt I got Rosie on my chest
‘Cause I’m the wanderer yeah the wanderer
I roam around around around

Oh well I roam from town to town
I go through life without a care
‘Til I’m as happy as a clown
With my two fists of iron and I’m going nowhere

I’m the type of gal that likes to roam around
I’m never in one place I roam from town to town
And when I find myself a-fallin’ for some girl, yeah
I hop right into that car of mine and ride around the world
Yeah I’m the wanderer, yeah the wanderer
I roam around around around, let’s go

interesting

we’ve seen how she can’t stand up very well, or walk much

maybe under that $12,000 tent of a pants suit she wears,
she’ll come equipped with a safety strap to tie her upright (to the podium/table)?

sort of like Mountaineering equipment?
