At least then I'd possibly believe it would be a surprise. Can you imagine any campaign actually allowing a surprise reveal of something like this. It's not going to happen not even for a massive hemorrhage of stupidity like the Trump campaign.

Dr. (take green coffee and live forever) Oz:

"Mr. Trump, your blood pressure is a little high as is your cholesterol but really that's great for a 70 year old man. On the other hand the stage 4 prostate cancer might come as a surprise." Wahhh Wahhh Wahhh sound effect.

<snip>
It’s not hard to understand what makes Dr. Oz so popular. Called “America’s doctor,” syndicated talk-show host Mehmet Oz speaks in a way anyone can understand. Medicine may be complex. But with Dr. Oz, clad in scrubs and crooning to millions of viewers about “miracles” and “revolutionary” breakthroughs, it’s often not. He somehow makes it fun. And people can’t get enough.

“I haven’t seen a doctor in eight years,” the New Yorker quoted one viewer telling Oz. “I’m scared. You’re the only one I trust.”

But is that trust misplaced? Or has Oz, who often peddles miracle cures for weight loss and other maladies, mortgaged medical veracity for entertainment value?

These questions have hammered Oz for months. In June, he was hauled in front of Congress, where Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) told him he gave people false hope and criticized his segments as a “recipe for disaster.” Then last month, a study he widely trumpeted lauding coffee bean weight-loss pills was retracted despite Oz’s assertions it could “burn fat fast for anyone who wants to lose weight.”

Are you kidding me? Dr. Oz. What a joke. I guess this is going to be an all TV reality show election.
