Local Reporter Asks Hillary If She Needs Neurological Tests

Local ABC Action News reporter Sabrina Fazan scored an exclusive interview with Hillary Clinton following her rally in Orlando, Florida on Wednesday. Among their topics of discussion were terrorism, the economy and the Democratic nominee's health. The reporter reminded Clinton that doctors worry about both Clinton's and Donald Trump's age and their risk for dementia and Alzheimers, and have suggested she take neurological exams. Clinton laughed at the question, before denying her need to take the tests.

"There's no need for that," Clinton responded. "My information is very clear and the information meets the standards that every other person running for president has ever had to meet."

"I am physically and mentally fit to be president," she added.

Of course, anyone who has seen the disturbing video of Clinton's hurried exit from the September 11 memorial ceremony after her bout of pneumonia would be forgiven if they had more questions.

As for Trump, he was surprisingly transparent with his latest doctor's physical, going through the sunny results with Dr. Oz in front of a television audience.
