Comments on: Does Obama Have A Weight Problem? http://donklephant.com/2008/08/01/does-obama-have-a-weight-problem/ Big Teeth. Huge Ass. Surprisingly Reasonable.

If you were to calculate Obama's weight based upon the Body Mass Index (BMI) scale, his BMI equals 22. A healthy BMI falls withing a range of 18.5-24. Thus, Obama is clearly at a healthy weight. Furhtermore, to judge someone based upon their appearance is competley irrational. If you're going to base a canidate's worth by looking at them, then you shouldn't be voting in the first place! It's how the canidate plans to handel our country's issues that really matters.

Absolutely ridiculous. How about we discuss what these men bring to the table rather than how they appear. P.S Love the picture, though.
