WASHINGTON — Joe Biden is"healthy, vigorous" and"fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency," according to a doctor's report released Tuesday by the 77-year-old former vice president.
Another Democratic candidate, Michael Bloomberg, has the same kind of irregular heartbeat, according to records released last week. “Overall he’s in good health,” said Dr. Mary McLaughlin, director of cardiovascular health and wellness at Mount Sinai Heart in New York, who reviewed Biden’s information.
Biden is the third Democratic presidential candidate to release his medical records. Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, 70, released a doctor's note earlier this month that said she is in"excellent health." A letter from Bloomberg's physician said the 77-year-old New York billionaire was in “outstanding health.”
Earlier this month in Iowa, a voter who said he was 83 told the candidate he is too old to serve as president. Biden challenged the man to a push-up contest and an IQ test.
