Bernie Sanders Admits Heart Attack Will
‘Change' the Nature of His Campaign.
Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders
is currently on the mend after suffering
a heart attack last week in Nevada.
The Vermont senator was hospitalized for
three days in Las Vegas and had to have
two stents inserted into a blocked artery.
Due to his current health, Sanders has
admitted that his campaign will have to change. .
I think we’re going to change the nature of
the campaign a bit. Make sure that I have the
strength to do what I have to do, Bernie Sanders, via ‘Slate’.
Sanders is now expected to scale back the number of
rallies he does a day, as he believes his intensive campaign
schedule contributed to his health scare. .
During this campaign, I’ve been doing in some
cases three or four rallies a day, running all over
the state — Iowa, New Hampshire, wherever …
And yet I, in the last month or two, just was
more fatigued than I usually have been. And
I should have listened to those symptoms, Bernie Sanders, via ‘The Washington Post’.
His campaign manager, Faiz Shakir, also weighed in, saying
Sanders would focus on keeping a “marathoner’s pace.” .
As Bernie said, we are going to have an active
campaign … Instead of a breakneck series of
events that lap the field, we are going to keep
a marathoner's pace that still manages to
outrun everyone else, Faiz Shakir, via CNN
