I mean really it is just one more way someone can die really, but sense everyone is different maybe Obama has a higher chance of some disease then McCain. These are things that really matter and we need to think about LOL! I mean god for bid Joe Biden becomes president....:S2:
It's true that anyone can die at any time. That's why we have VPs. I think Joe Biden could be president, but Palin is not ready. Also, even though anyone can die at any time, most people do not have as much chance of dying in the next 4 to 8 years as a 72-year-old man who has cancer. That's the point of this article, that McCain has a statistically higher chance of dying in office than the average person would.

Ordinarilly I don't think McCain's high chance of dying in office would be a big factor in how people vote except for the fact that he picked such a bad VP.

Also, his chance of dying is not the only problem with his age --- the main problem is his ideas are of date.
