Default Dear Friend's Toilet does not flush fully

A friend of ours has a toilet in her condo that when flushed does not
go down the bowl all the way. I also noticed that the tank is a
plastic *almost* facsimile of the tank that belongs there.

I tried different water height settings and still the water, once it
reaches the bowl section, will not go down.

Is it simply the obvious - that there is a clog that has been brewing
somewhere down the line for a long time? I'd really love to help her
so she and her roommates don't have to dispose of their "solid waste"
in the wastebasket instead of where it belongs!!

If it is a clog, please recommend a good organic or semi-organic clog
remover.

As it's in a condo, maybe there's a clog somewhere beyond the part of
the plumbing your friend is responsible for maintaining or repairing?

Tell us the reslts of a bucket of water rapidly poured in.
