I am what some people call a health nut, I have never been sick a day in my life. I have never had a stomach ache or a headheache. I have never had any operation. I also have not been in a fast food joint since the days of Westsons or Arthur Treachers. I do not eat Chinese food, it is not consumed, by the way in China in anyway resembling the major salt and peanut oil packed take out we get in this country. Years ago I opened up a seminar company called Change Your Life Style and got hired to teach it in local adult ed. It folded in about a year because people wanted their pizza, cake and cheeseburgers and did not want to learn how to lose weight by exercise and diet. I saw the Kennedy Nixon debates in 1960 and viewers polled were praising JFK over the furtive and 5 o'clock shadowed Nixon. Pawlenty and Romney are tall fit and trim as is Bobby Jindal. Being in shape does really matter in 2010 because a high level official must send a message to our youth and adults that obesity and a sedentary life style can mean diabetes 2 and a host of other conditions like high blood pressure, colon cancer and heart disease. One thing about Obama and I am a life long Republican who cannot wait to win big in 2010, besides the smoke, he looks terrific, lean, handsome and great in a silk suit. I remember Billy Eckstine and his great success. This nominee is none of the above and in 2010 sends a message that a healthy lifestyle is not important. She also does not dress for the part of a probable Supreme Court Justice. I was born during the Truman Administration so you can just say it is a new world. Appearance and heath are still important. Maybe jobs will come back, you will still be compelled to look good on interviews.
