Former president Bill Clinton is to undergo a heart operation next week prompted by the discovery of dangerous blockage of his coronary arteries. Physicans were alarmed enough to insist that Clinton, 58, undergo bypass surgery with minimal delay at Manhattan's New York-Presbyterian Hospital.
"My blockage is so subtantial, I think if i don't do this. there's virtually a 100 percent chance that I'll have a heart attack, Clinton said.

Clinton's health scare-- are surprise for a man who had been declared in good health after years of intensive annual physicals in his White House years and afterward may have political implications. He has been relishing the prospect of hitting the campaign trail on behalf of Democratic nominee John F. Kerry and other candidates this fall. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) said her husband will have the surgery "early next week." She said no information will be released until the surgery is completed and advised reporters to "enjoy your Labor Day weekend." The former president stated: 'I guess Im a little scared, but not much.'

The secret service is good at covering up stuff. Don't be surprised if you hear the he had it a long time ago. But in the interest of politics it could not be revealed.

Hopefully he reovers still. He was a good man.
