I love Sanders, and I personally have no problem voting for him, but I fear this might be the end of his presidential aspirations.
He's still leading the democratic pack in terms of monetary support, so I would be so sure about that.
 
If sanders was a regular joe, id wish him a good recovery, but because hes running for president and hes a communist, i hope God/nature finishes him off. Its better he be knocked out then to possibly win and then destroy the country.

Bernie Sanders Had Heart Attack, His Doctors Say as He Leaves Hospital

"Mr. Sanders, 78, had entered the hospital on Tuesday night after experiencing chest pain at a campaign event, and doctors had inserted two stents in a blocked artery, a relatively common procedure. But the campaign did not confirm that Mr. Sanders had had a heart attack until Friday, inviting questions about his condition, and his campaign’s transparency, as he remained off the campaign trail this week."

So we weren't told about Sanders' heart attack until after he had left the hospital. We were told earlier in the week that all he had was a "blocked artery" and some chest "discomfort".

Bernie Sanders hospitalized for blocked artery, campaign events canceled

"During a campaign event yesterday evening, Sen. Sanders experienced some chest discomfort. Following medical evaluation and testing he was found to have a blockage in one artery and two stents were successfully inserted," said Sanders’ senior adviser Jeff Weaver on Wednesday in a statement.

Gotta say, this feels really slimy to me. The Sanders campaign had to have known the full extent of the medical emergency almost as soon as he was admitted to the hospital and examined. Yet, they refused to reveal the full extent of Sanders' condition until a Friday night when nobody's watching the news. I think this will cripple the Sanders campaign twofold. On the one hand, we all know Sanders is old, and having a heart attack and being easily the oldest man ever elected president (should he win) is going to make a lot of people question whether or not he can even finish out his first term. On the other hand, this lack of transparency about critical information relating to Sanders' health has to be a big turn-off to a lot of people.

Noting a few stints won't fix. He will be back in the race with lots more energy.

He will pick a strong young woman as a VP. One that would have the courage and ability to continue his fight should something happens to him. He knows this.

That photo's real tiny. Is that Harris or Gabbard? I can't tell.
Tulsi Gabbard. Kamala Harris does not stand for the same issues Bernie does. That is a picture of Gabbard and Sanders in 2016, where she risked career suicide by being the only one with the courage to endorse Bernie Sanders over Hilary Clinton.
