5. I heard he had a form of cancer...
Maybe I heard it here? I think it's non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. It's not curable, but it's treatable. He does not look well and I'm wondering if there might be something else going on with him medically. Several times when he's answered questions from audience members, he's been pretty incoherent.

31. His cancer is bound to be a major issue
A lot of Americans wasn't a healthy President and not one who will likely have Cancer rebound before he gets out of office.
