re: #170 Mattand

I’m a little sensitive to the issue, as I’ve got family members who are in the Christie zone. Shit, I need to shed about 40 lbs. myself.

I know how hard it is to lose weight. I don’t want to come off like it’s as easy as eating a salad and drinking water for 10 days.

But despite his protestations, the guy wants to be POTUS. It’s an issue. He’s most likely in danger of having some kind of coronary, given his weight and age.

I also find it a little amusing that so many of the people who are villifying the First Lady for promoting a healthy life style are often pushing for Christie to run for POTUS.

William Taft (27th President) was the largest one so far, over 330 pounds. He also is the only person to hold office for both POTUS and Chief Justice of the United States. I can’t find anything saying his weight affected his job performance.
