Alzheimer’s Notes

Is Obama Misleading Americans About Stem Cell Research & an Alzheimer’s Cure?

by Mary Emma Allen on October 6th, 2008

 According to an article in Alzheimer’s Weekly, Presidents, Stem Cells & Alzheimer’s, Barack Obama is misleading the public with an ad claiming stem cell research would cure Alzheimer’s…an ad in which he criticizes John McCain for opposing this research and thus blocking cures for diabetes, cancer and Alzheimer’s. 

According to the article (originally appearing in LifeNews.com), researchers say embryonic stem cell research will “likely never yield a cure for Alzheimer’s.” 

In the emotional climate of desiring a cure for Alzheimer’s and other diseases, do we sometimes take ads and political speeches at face value instead of looking into the accuracy of the statements and the meaning behind them? 

This article does contain some interesting facts about stem cell research and Alzheimer’s.
