I have asked to see Pennsylvania Senate hopeful John Fetterman’s health records, much as I previously asked to see Hillary Clinton’s, Joe Biden’s and Donald Trump’s. Back in 2008, when Sen. John McCain was running for president, the media pressured him to release more than 1,000 pages of health records, and I was part of the small group that pored through them. I announced this as the new standard of transparency: All candidates running for higher office should release their health records. The McCain Protocol was born.

But part of this protocol includes not speculating about a candidate’s health based on video clips alone, and I have always respected that, insisting that I am limited by not seeing the records or examining the patient.

In John Fetterman’s case, I have asked to see the echocardiogram of a damaged, ballooned-out heart and the MRI of a damaged brain following his stroke this year. How large is the stroke? Exactly which areas that involve the language and thought-processing centers of the left brain are involved?
