SPIN: Ranking U.S. officials can't be obese? A Chris Christie POTUS run & WIN could change that!

[UserNameless]

I will say if Christie runs, the U.S. would show it has really made strides if it elected a really overweight president...still diversity...in a sense.

I can't think of one, highly visible overweight person in the U.S. who has more power than him right now. You just don't see really overweight/obese people in high ranking positions in the government/major institutions/government.

Let's discuss why that's the case and whether, indirectly, Christie could be the champion of overweight people across the country...especially if he runs and wins.

Fat people

Yeah I said it

 

[Blackking]

grown men... and young women, should not be fat.

Looks like the coli hates fat people.

I don't really care, but the obese potentially make up a pretty big voter bloc. If there's some sort of solidarity among the "horizontally tall" voters, it could certainly help Christie win. Assuming they actually make it to the polls.



But on some serious shyt, I still think it works against him. As a general rule, presidents cannot be obese or short. Petty, but history says that if you're too big or not tall enough you won't be seen as presidential.

Right. It says a lot about our society.


Quick...Name five obese and/or really overweight people in high positions of authority (Religious institutions not included).

 

[Jello Biafra]

This Chris Christie would never get elected President because even fat people would not vote for him:

We are fine with a slightly chubby guy like Bill Clinton was when he was elected but we draw the line as voters with the morbidly obese. Its superficial but just the way it is.

It's general reflection of Americans. (It's ok to be overweight.)

Being Fat is the new gay...Black.

 

[IGSaint12]

Having a fat chris christie on the world stage. Americans are already mocked around the world as fat americans, we don't need our commander and chief personifying that shyt.

 

[Robbie3000]

Since the age of television, we havent had a fat president or an average height president. All presidents have been considerably taller than the average American.

If so, I wonder if that would cause folks to rally behind him.

According to society, you might be right.

If Christie wins, you think we might be able to get a short president?

Who knows man...Obama's win might have created some momentum for all sorts of anomalies. We might have an amputee win one day!
