Hillary Clinton is enjoying an astounding 66% approval rating, while remaining the hands down favorite to be the Democratic nominee for President of the United States in 2016. However, a recent health scare and her plans to slow down and return to private life could derail any potential political future.
Secretary of State Clinton is recovering in a New York hospital after doctors discovered a blood clot located between her brain and skull. The blood clot is presumed to be a side effect of the concussion she suffered in mid December, after a stomach virus and exhaustion caused her to faint and bump her head.
An emergency MRI conducted on Sunday discovered the blood clot, which could have been life threatening had it gone undetected. Doctors say Mrs. Clinton did not suffer a stroke or any neurological damage. They have prescribed blood thinners to attack the clot and expect her to make a full recovery.
Hillary Clinton is notorious for maintaining a horrifically challenging work schedule, which has likely led to her current ills. She intends to leave her post as Secretary of State and return to private life as soon as President Obama’s choice to replace her, Sen. John Kerry, can be confirmed.
Still, the question remains: Will Hillary run again for president in 2016, or is her plan to return to private life in her best interest and what she truly intends to do?

I was looking at pics of Hillary from when she ran four years ago. Then you look at this pic of her today. She has really aged and doesn't look well. The presidency is hers for the taking if she wants it. I just don't know if she has the health and the will power to do it.
